Sitting atop the ridge south of Fort Montagu is Blackbeard’s Tower, a semiderelict cut-stone tower that, according to local lore, was built by Edward Teach – ‘Blackbeard’ – as a lookout tower. Historians point out that it was actually built in the late 18th century, long after the infamous pirate had been killed. Historical uncertainty aside, it’s got a great view.
To reach the tower, you go up an unmarked path next to a green-and-white house called ‘Tower Leigh,’ south of Fox Hill Rd.
European by birth, Jeremy has travelled throughout Europe, North America and Mexico, Central and South America and now The Bahamas, where he is captivated by the beauty and the diversity of each individual island as well as the rich and enthralling history, culture and people of this Archipelago.
