Wild Side Walk - Sunday January 7, 2024
I am happy to announce the first FREE Wild Side Walk of the new year on Sunday, January 7, 2024.
Location: Forest Bay Pond IBA
Time: 7:00 am - 8:30 am (Participants are responsible for transport to and from the excursion.)
Description: Forest Bay Pond Important Bird Area (IBA) is an off-the-beaten-path wetland that provides views of various birds throughout the year, including some of Anguilla's more elusive raptor and heron species.
The adjacent Forest Bay also provides views of St. Martin as Seabirds fish in the shallow waters.
Directions:
Head northwest toward The Valley Road and enter the roundabout. Exit the roundabout onto The Valley Road for 900 m. Turn left onto Jeremiah Gumbs Hwy 400 m. Turn left onto Long Ground Rd 1.3 km. Continue onto Corito Rd 200 m. Turn left onto Forest Rd 550 m. Turn right and Forest Bay Pond will be on the right.
Parking: A sand spit separates Forest Bay from Forest Bay Pond, and no designated parking areas exist. However, you can pull off onto the beachside at various openings along the road.
