A cove is a small type of bay or coastal inlet. They usually have narrow, restricted entrances, are often circular           or oval, and are often inside a larger bay. Small, narrow, sheltered bays, inlets, creeks, or recesses in a coast    are often considered coves. Colloquially, the term can be used to describe a sheltered bay.

Geomorphology describes coves as precipitously walled and rounded cirque-like openings as in a valley extending into or down a mountainside, or in a hollow or nook         of a cliff or steep mountainside. Their are many coves     in the Caribbean

Caribbean coves, like bays, are formed by differential erosion. Differential erosion is when softer rocks are worn away faster than the harder rocks surrounding them. These rocks further erode to form a circular bay with a narrow entrance called a cove.

Secret Caribbean coves:

Rawlins Plantation

Set on Mount Pleasant with the cool trade wind breeze rustling the palms over looking the scenic north coast of St. Kitts and the Caribbean sea, Rawlins Plantation Inn has for 36 years been the chosen retreat for the fortunate few, for quality time spent with plantation cocktails, ambrosial food and probably the best wine list on the island.

Rawlins 12 guestrooms are in cottages scattered throughout the plantation grounds. Each cottage has its own private veranda catching cool breezes and offering spectacular views of Caribbean coves.

Daily life at Rawlins is easy and carefree. Activities include a grass tennis court, a spring fed swimming pool, croquet on the lawn and trips to the rainforest. For those who simply wish to relax there is our library of favourite books, tea by the pool or simply sitting on the veranda with a rum punch absorbing the sweet serenity of the old Caribbean.

More strenuous island activities are scuba diving, sailing, golf, cricket and open air carnivals and concerts. In total an island experience that balances conviviality with a Caribbean magic that is raw exuberant and full of vitality.

CARIBBEAN NEWS - UPDATE -
Caribbean airlines - Caribbean Flights:

Caribbean Airlines has issued a stark signal of intent, ordering nine ATR 72-600 regional turboprops at a total value of US$200 million.

The news comes as the flag-carrier of Trinidad & Tobago seeks to consolidate its position in the Caribbean following the acquisition of Air Jamaica. 
“In the last months we have experienced a strong commercial success in the Americas, which has represented almost 50 per cent of our order intakes in 2010,” said Filippo Bagnato, chief executive officer of ATR.
“The growing economies of the region are strongly developing their regional connectivity.

“Our ATR aircraft are optimally positioned to answer to their needs by providing unrivalled performances on routes under 400 nautical miles, both in terms of operating costs and environmental impact.

“Also, the ATR aircraft provide the right answer to the increasing demands in terms of passenger comfort level.” The deal follows a Memorandum of Understanding announced in September 2010 and will make the airline a new operator of ATR regional aircraft.

Deliveries of ATR 72-600s to Caribbean Airlines will start in October 2011. According to Franco-Italian group ATR the aircraft will be configured with 68 seats.  Caribbean Airlines will use its new
ATR 72-600s to replace its current fleet of five Bombardier Dash 8-300 turboprops on domestic routes, and add new service frequencies linking Trinidad and Tobago and surrounding destinations. In addition, some of the new ATRs will be operated on the network of Air Jamaica, recently acquired by Caribbean Airlines.

Last year the airline was recognised by the World Travel Awards as the Caribbean’s Leading Airline.
