Prior to our visit to Bahamas, we were forewarned about the crowded beaches at the Atlantis. They told us only one beach came to mind that offered seclusion and privacy, and that was Cove Beach. Boy, were they right.
We probably would have not found Cove Beach by ourselves if no one had told us about it. While this beach was right on the Atlantis premises, it was situated AWAY from all the hustle-and-bustle. You had to actually walk past the crowded pool area with the many people, chairs, and toys strewn all over the place.
We had a destination in mind and that was Cove Beach. You see, we were on vacation and wanted to get away from it all. We wanted a secluded beach where all you can hear were the waves splashing against the beach. It was a little trek from the Harborside Resort (where we were staying), but THIS beach was worth the walk.
We noticed a little place by Cove Beach that offered towels. We stopped by there first before heading out onto the beach. We also had to sign out for the towels. By the way, this was the ONLY place we received the little metallic Atlantis bracelets. I guess they wanted to make sure you bring the towels back.
Our first impression of Cove Beach was, "Oh, my gosh!" The soft, white sandy beach was heavenly!! There were only a few scattered people on it, and that was just fine with us. We were definitely going to enjoy this beautiful beach without any guilt.
So, if you are looking for that peaceful beach that offers seclusion and beauty, look no further. Cove Beach is the place for you.
