Anguilla is still a relaxed place where you can access Mead's Bay how you like. What about Viceroy? Go to the Land Survey and find out if there is a public access to Mead's there, and if there is, assert your right to it in court if you care that much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37949944.post-6862596295082734982009-03-17T20:13:00.000-04:002009-03-17T20:13:00.000-04:00The subject here is legal public access, not "no o...The subject here is legal public access, not "no one has never stopped them." Someone could stop them tomorrow, we don't know.<BR/><BR/>And just because we see a road or a path doesn't mean we have the right to use it, or that it will still be available for our use tomorrow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37949944.post-37112212651412483192009-03-16T16:52:00.000-04:002009-03-16T16:52:00.000-04:00Accessing via Cocoloba and the depressing dolphins...Accessing via Cocoloba and the depressing dolphins was never a great way to access Mead's. I don't know about your children, but mine access the eastern end via La Sirena/Sur La Plage. They also get to it via Frangipani, Carimar, etc. <BR/><BR/>They park where others park, either in the parking lots or on the road by Carimar and cut through to the beach. No one has ever stopped them -- they have never had to "push their way through to the beach." And it's quite convenient. And now that Straw Hat is at Frangipani, it's a favorite spot for us to have lunch and an afternoon on Mead's. <BR/><BR/>Viceroy should be forced to provide public access the way Cap Juluca does, I agree, but my children are doing just fine, thank you.<BR/><BR/><BR/>DoncheckerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37949944.post-51145104019070932092009-03-16T14:24:00.000-04:002009-03-16T14:24:00.000-04:00in fact: there is one more public access>behind...in fact: there is one more public access><BR/>behind sur la plage villas is a dirt road and sand path leading the western end of Meads Bay: seek and ye shall find.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37949944.post-26800078583200477372009-03-16T10:00:00.000-04:002009-03-16T10:00:00.000-04:00There is no LEGAL public access except at the far ...There is no LEGAL public access except at the far east end.

Government (it must have been Sir Emile, back then) that in order to settle the matter, Government was acquiring the land. <BR/><BR/>Did that ever happen? Is the land still vacant? Could it be used for public access and parking?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
