There is little sign of the hotel extravaganza to come as Highway 1 begins to carve its way up the west coast through the tiny village of PROSPECT . Most of the area here is residential and the beaches - largely bereft of tourists - are popular at weekends and holidays with families up from Bridgetown. A good bet, if you want to swim, is Prospect Beach - a narrow crescent of sand, backed by manchineel trees and palms, and a calm turquoise bay. Public access is via a path just north of the all-inclusive Escape Hotel , and at busy times the beach can get crowded with the hotel's guests. Continuing north, there isn't much to distinguish this area of coast other than a series of superlative bays and beaches, many of them tucked away behind an increasingly grand row of hotels and private mansions, themselves often hidden by security fences. A right turn opposite the Tamarind Cove Hotel winds upward into the island's interior, past the grand polo field at Holder's House - an old Great House and the venue for a prestigious classical music festival every March.
