To get to Lover's Beach you will have to take a water taxi to get there. Depending on the weather the ride can be slightly bumpy and when you arrive at the beach you will have to jump into shallow water from the boat to walk to the beach. This is a good area for snorkeling if the water is calm. (The dive boats take you to the rocks just offshore for a great variety of sealife.) We went in the first week of September and the beach was largely exposed. From the point where you reach the beach you will have a short hike to around the rock to get to the beach under the arch. If the water is rough, I HIGHLY recommend you watch where the waves are landing before going around the back side of the rock. We were almost sucked into the ocean when a huge wave crushed us against the rocks unexpectedly and tried to pull us in. We had to time the waves and then run between them to get there. It is worth it! A very romantic site (my boyfriend tried to propose to me several times there but was unsuccessful due to family interruptions!). Great rock formations and caves. There are a lot of seals sunning themselves on rocks. You will have vendors selling beer (at a premium)! This was the most memorable site for us.
