Pidgeon Island
I think the bar/cafe on Pidgeon Island (on the side of the Bay) does book swap although I am not certain as I have not done it. IIRC there is a fair collection of books and old sofas etc in the bar. I think they have Jaz nights there too and the food was pretty good as I recall. I can't remember the name of the place but it is close to the landing stage which is beside a very small beach. Hope you find it. If not there's the yacht club or Spinnakers bar to ask on Rodney Bay beach

Yup go to Pigeon Island one of the best books swaps in the caribbean but a bit tatty. last time we were there (last year) they had shut Scuttlebutts - a crime of monumental proportions. Maybe its open again and they did have a small bookswap.

book swap found!
Thanks for the replies, the book swap in the bar on pigeon island is very good (and the free wifi is a bonus) and we also found a bookswap in the pub at the visitor centre on the other side of the island.
SueM - I have sent you a PM.
Happy sailing all

If you are heading North.
There is one at Shipw\reck Bar, Friars Bay in St.KItts and the St Maarten Yacht Club next to the Simpson Bay bridge.

Book swap Pigeon island
'Jambe de bois' is the name of the bar across the bay. Last year they did book swap and a very good Curried Lamb Roti. Jazz (which I like) on Sundays was free, experimental and unpleasant. Lock the dinghy on the short dock. But it's a good place to be, really chilled. Make sure you climb to the top of both forts, during the day of course, great view and you work up a healthy thirst.

Scuttlebutt is no more. Now called H2O. Much better food but not the bar atmosphere that Scuttlebutt used to have. No book exchange either.

Yes, that's the name of the place. It's been bugging me that I couldn't recall. Are you serious about locking the dingy to the dock?

Yeh, alright. You can stop all this boasting about being in the Windies whilst some of us are stuck in Croydon on a cold January day.
