At Two Foot Bay on Barbuda's exposed northeastern coast, caves cut into the limestone highlands run back into the rock, and some carry markings understood as Amerindian, made by the island's population before European arrival. A passage in one cave opens through to daylight at the top of the ridge. Stone ruins of nineteenth-century buildings stand near the entrances. The coast outside is rough Atlantic shore.
What you actually see
- The cave markings - Amerindian carvings and marks on the walls.
- The through passage - the route opening to daylight at the top of the ridge.
- The stone ruins - nineteenth-century buildings near the cave mouths.
- The Atlantic coast - the exposed shore outside the caves.
When to go
December to April is the dry season and the track is more passable. The caves are dark and a torch is essential. Hurricane season runs June to November.
Honest expectations
A torch is essential and a local guide is worth taking; the markings are hard to find otherwise. The track from Codrington is rough. There are no facilities.
Nearby
Darby Cave is south, and Codrington is west.
