Blue Bay Beach
Blue Bay pairs a tidy resort beach with one of the most accessible house reefs on the island, where turtles are a common sight.
Set on a golf-resort estate about 20 minutes from town, Blue Bay charges a small entrance fee and offers loungers, a dive shop and restaurants. Snorkel out from the beach to the reef edge to find turtles, rays and reef fish. The calm, clear water and on-site amenities make it a comfortable full-day option.
