Overlap Stone
Two boulders balanced on each other in the hills above Lamai, with a terrace looking down the whole south-east coast. A small fee gets you through the gate.

A hundred metres from Overlap Stone, a rock shaped like a raised snake's head and a second, wider terrace over Lamai bay.
A hundred metres up the same hill road as Overlap Stone, a rock shaped like a raised snake's head marks a second, wider terrace over Lamai bay. Fewer people stop here, and the view is arguably the better of the two.
The platform sits a little higher and further round the slope, so it takes in the bay, the reef and the hills behind. There are benches, a drinks stall and the same paid access as its neighbour.
Same access road; buy one ticket, see both.
Same steep road as Overlap Stone; in the rainy season the concrete is slick.
