Looking inland from the sea the prospect is by no means lovely, On the left rise the barren rugged sides of Ape's Hill, some 1,100 feet in height, and on the right is a smaller one called Saracen's Head, bounded on the sea face by a line of precipitous cliffs rising directly from the water's edge. Between the two is a small green-looking mound separated from Ape's Hill by a chasm and from the other headland by a deep channel about 60 yards wide, which forms the entrance to the inner harbour, This is about six or eight miles long by two or thee miles across in the widest part, and forms a calm lagoon, bounded on the North by a well cultivated plain through which a little river runs down to the sea.
