Wow! This is a snorkeling and scuba mecca! I didn't dive, but still saw lobster, eels, and hundreds of species of fish along the deep edge of the reef! It's a long drive from the East or South Shore, but well worth it!

Don't dive? Vast expanses of open sand beckon you to soak up the suns rays.

It's also a great place to windsurf or kitesurf (although not for beginners because of the reef). Sound too windy? The beach is well protected by trees.

One drawback - parking is tough, as there is no lot. Don't get a ticket!

This snorkeling was out of this world!! It was my first time ever so I was a little nervous and hoping that I wouldn't choke under water. I got into the water, put the mask and breathing aparatus on and went under water...I could not believe my eyes. Right where I had been standing, fish were swimming right along next to me. I was amazed and in awe! We tried touching them but of course, they shied away from us. It was one of the most incredible things I have ever seen! Bring an underwater camera - you won't want to miss this!

I have snorkeled in many places and this site is among the finest for clarity, ease of entry from the beach, and the amount of fish and coral formations. Currents can be strong, so be aware of the conditions.
