description Devil's Bridge Overview

Devil's Bridge is a natural limestone arch on the Atlantic coast of Antigua, near the island's eastern side. Repeated wave action has eroded the coastal rock into an arch and associated openings through which seawater and spray can be forced during rough conditions. The site is a geological landmark and visitor destination, but exposed rock, strong surf, and unpredictable waves make the immediate shoreline hazardous.
