    Just a beautiful powdery, white sand, turquoise water beach. You can walk a long way, maybe a mile and a half in one direction enjoying the different colors of the water and searching for shells...  more »

    This is a beautiful beach, but keep in mind there on no facilities and no shade. It wasn't too crowded, the day we visited.  more »

    It was just absolutely magical. I have been living on the island for 6 months and finally went to this gem and I will be coming back over and over. It is peaceful and quiet. Absolutely breathtaking. And the kids loved it as well. Felt like an escape from the world as there was not many people there and just open beach
  • By Brad Kropp
    What a wonderful beach. Pro Tip to remember: DO NOT bring any umbrellas that penetrate the sand. If you absolutely need to bring an umbrella, bring a 5 gallon bucket with sand so you can put your umbrella into that. Don't stick it into the sand. You might destroy a sea turtle nest without knowing it.

    When you think of a beautiful sandy beach, this is the fantasy. Only open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10-4, so if you're visiting, plan accordingly. No cost to enter.

    Windy day created a wavy day, but beautiful just the same.
