We have had two large fishing boats 'parked' on our beach for ever. Every year, in high season, the itinerant fishermen who man the boats arrive in December and fish our waters for three to four months before moving on to their boats in other parts of the island. Sadly, due to the construction of a huge anti-erosion wall on a large frontage of the beach, the fishermen were confounded in 2019/2020 and did not appear. 

They are now back. Such good news. We can play 'trip' again when running on the beach and pop down to choose today's freshest fish once they have hauled in the net. You can always help them too! Good start to 2021.
