Made it to the reef bay house. This is my favorite piece of architecture on the island. Too bad the park does not take care of it. Every year it looks worse.

Eagleraylover-Karen is at Lameshur and I am heading back. Join us if you like.

Europa Bay looks a lot like Grootpan Bay, pretty secluded, your pics are just beautiful :D

I have never seen anyone else at Europa bay in all the times I have been there. I would love to snorkel there sometime when the water is calm

I forgot to put the pic of reef Bay Great House up earlier- it really is a great piece of work.

We have only hiked to Europa Bay once. Enjoyed it and were the only ones there. It was too rough to try and snorkel when we were there. We did not see ruins where are they?

The ruins aren't at Europa but farther up the Lameshur trail. It is the Reef Bay Great House.
