background
Very remote and only accessible via detours and on bad roads, this place is located on the southwest tip of the island. From New Bight, drive 13 miles via Old Bight to the Deep South roundabout. From there another 8 km to the west, along Morgan's Bay almost to the southern tip of the island. Shortly before Devil's Point, a path branches off to the north. Across the island it leads after 6½ km to the settlement of McQueens. From there an even worse path goes another 9 km to the west.
Devils Point Beach is a long, lonely sandy beach with shady trees but no infrastructure.
