- Neltjeberg Plantation Ruins and Burial Site. Dense Palm Forest.
Neltjeberg Beach is the island's most secluded, pristine beach. Here you can discover some truly fascinating and deeply hidden 17th century secrets. St. Thomas’ Neltjeberg Estate contains ruins that were once a bustling sugar plantation.
This historic sugar plantation was once complete with a working factory, animal mill, stable, cemetery and slave quarters. Some of the remaining walls of the estate’s structures can be found crumbling deep within the landscape. Much of what remains on the property today is just a remnant of its former glory.
The grounds of Neltjeberg Estate are also the final resting place for at least four of the original dwellers. The grave sites are just about 50 feet from the ocean, amidst the ruins of this once-thriving plantation.
And just past the grave sites, beyond the tree line, lies a pristine, sandy beach known as Neltjeberg Beach.
In consideration of this historic property and the graciousness of its owners, please leave our island treasure of Neltjeberg Beach as you found it -- a truly pristine, unspoiled island beach, steeped in island history.
That’s close to my house. Love that beach and the Sugar Mill. The best part is it’s secluded and not crowded because we keep it a locals secret. It would be great if it could stay a secret. 🤫
So pretty! Thanks for the details!
Thank you for your kind words..
Looks beautiful!!!
And watching was mosquito free.. Thank you for your kind comment..
Great video!! that road to the beach reminds us of the jeep tour we did in Tortola 2 years ago. ( you gave my wife PTSD😂 she drove so I could video)
I will be checking out your other videos seeing we will be there first week of April in the Disney Fantasy and need some ideas on what to do.
Thanks again for your comments.. Can I ask how many hours off-ship to do adventures you're scheduled to have while you're in-port? I want to create a video designed for your and other similar traveler's to get the Best/Most options out of their one-day ship visit, just as you suggested..
@@GoGrumpy awesome! We are at the port from 7:45-3:45. Most people will be off the ship for 4-5hrs.
Thanks for doing that.(you have until April 3🤣)
We were telling our kids how crazy that drive was to that beach you did.
