New Chocolate Hole webcam -

I just glanced at the web cam, nice sunny day, but is it really that brown there now? Or is that a malfunction of the camera and software? When we stayed on Chocolate hole last June, it was real pretty and green.

I'm so happy to have this on my favorites! I look at it several times during the day! Thank you so much! I can't wait to see it in person in May.

I think they are in need of some rain, no? Didn't someone say that the other day? That the rain was welcomed by islanders?

This is a fun webcam. I see a lot of villas I recognize----from the lower right along Chocolate Hole there is Ebb Tide, Ciellodonna, and then Beach Music with the green roof. Above Ciellodonna with the blue roof is Eden's Whim. On the Maria Bluff hillside facing into Great Cruz Bay, but visible on the side of the hill, I see Blue Skies (with light blue roof), Hibiscus Gardens (red roof) Indigo (yellow---not too noticeable), Maria Breeze (above Indigo), then Kismet at the very top of Maria Bluff. Wish I were there!

What is the waterfront villa on the left side? Kind of blends in with the scenery?

That might be the house that Rich Meyer is building....Not sure.

Do any of you know if Molly's Cottage is in view of this webcam?

I wonder whether that house being coonstructed on Chocolate Hole is this one:

I believe that's Beach Garden. It was still being built while we were at Cliffside Terrace last month.

Anyone know what the villa is above and to the left of Cliffside? (Cliffside being the smaller white roof at the far left, first up from the waterline.) I can happily report that the foliage has grown in to the point that most of the pool area at Cliffside is no longer visible from that villa, and the hot tub is completelly shielded.

That Beach Garden villa looks like it's going to be real nice. Here's a picture of the construction as of the first week of March:

It's the same water as all the other beaches use, but parts of Chocolate Hole are kind of rocky, and there's sea grass around, so it may not look as blue as some others. The name Chocolate Hole, at least according to "Feet, Fins..." comes from the color of the rocks along the shore, not the water itself.
