THINGS TO DO AT SILVER SANDS
Silver Sands is a secluded resort community of about 90
privately owned villas. It is on a 250 acre hilly site
that comes down to the azure and turquoise Caribbean Sea
where there is a half mile long gorgeous fine white coral
sand private beach.
Some who come to Jamahome are content just to sit on the
sun porch and be mesmerized by the soft warm ocean breezes
and the stunningly blue Caribbean stretching into the
distance. But for the more active, there's lots to do
right at Silver Sands.
The
Beach
There are two fine white coral sand beaches at Silver
Sands available for free use by our guests. The beach
right in front of Jamahome is superb for snorkeling and
exploring, and the one to the east 100 yards is renowned
for sunbathing and swimming. It has lifeguards, drink and
snack bars, a childs playground and a clubhouse with
TV, some games and a notions store.
Snorkeling
There is a spectacular coral reef a half-mile out from
the Silver Sands beach, and you can hire a local fisherman
to take you out there for snorkeling. The current charge
is about US$15 per person for an outing. There is
snorkeling gear at Jamahome for your use. The beaches in
front of Jamahome and to the east of the main beach both
have smaller coral areas providing wonderful spots for
snorkeling. A pair of rubber soled beach shoes makes it
very easy to do.
Fishing
You can hire a local fisherman to take you out fishing at
Silver Sands, and he will provide bait and other
equipment.
Tennis
The court at Silver Sands is available to guests at a
small fee. There are several tennis rackets at Jamahome
for your use.
Walking
The streets on the complex are fine for a leisurely
stroll or even jogging. The roads outside the complex can
be explored also. There is a cave on the left off the road
about a half mile to the west. Watch out for cows and
goats!
Night Life
Silver Sands itself is rather sleepy, but there is
entertainment at the clubhouse from time to time. You can
hire the Powerhouse group to come to Jamahome for a reggae
music concert for a reasonable fee. Claudette can help
arrange that.
