Can anyone give us an update on the beach conditions? Orient, Happy Bay, Cupucoy, Baie Rouge? We are a little concerned about Orient Beach erosion, etc.

Thanks

Orient is fine. A little smaller than past years, but fine. We've been in a Waterfront Chalet since February 6th.
Can't report on the others.

Watching the Club Orient beach cam, it appears heavy equipment is working on the beach or berm in the area between the Perch and Pedro's. Can anyone comment on the activity? Thanks very much.

Keep in mind, whatever the conditions are today, they can be totally different tomorrow or next week. Cupecoy especially changes rapidly and Orient has been changing frequently and drastically also.

The ClubO beach is very narrow around the Perch and north to the rocks by Pedros. Only 1 row of chairs. From Papaguyos to the Perch the beach widens to support 5 rows of chairs and then narrows near the Perch. We have never seen so many chairs and umbrellas in that wide area.

The beach is very crowded. Most chairs are either tagged or have things reserving them from the non-ClubO crowd by 10 am.

It seems that the ClubO beach has been discovered and is very popular now smile

Yes, there are quite a few chairs on the nude side of Pedros.
