BEACHES

Pink sand, Bermuda
Bermuda is a series of islands and is blessed with many sandy world-class beaches.  The following is a sampling of some of them.

SOUTH SHORE

The islands of Bermuda are coral formations atop the 
remnants of an underwater volcano.  Over the centuries, the ocean has worn the coral and stone down so that the islands have an abundance of sandy beaches.  On some of these, the white sand has mixed with red giving the beach a pink cast.  The erosion has also created dramatic rock 
formations.

Pictured here is perhaps the most attractive set of 
beaches situated along the southwestern coast in 
Warwick and Southampton Parishes. 
Church Bay, Bermuda
Secluded among towering rock faces is Church Bay  at the extreme western end of the South Shore row of beaches.
Horseshoe Bay, Bermuda
The most popular beach in Bermuda is Horseshoe Bay. The beach has facilities including changing rooms and food services.  People tend to congregate at the end of the beach nearest the facilities.  As a result, the further end is more secluded with  impressive rock formations creating more intimate beaches.

Chaplin Bay, Bermuda

The next significant beach to the east is Chaplin Bay.  Smaller than Horseshoe Bay and with less facilities, Chaplin Bay is more secluded. 
Stonehole Bay, Bermuda

Often called Chaplin Bay's twin, Stonehole Bay is also secluded and romantic.
Jobson's Cove, Bermuda

Warwick Long Bay, Bermuda
Warwick Long Bay, Bermuda
Warwick Long Bay, as the name implies, is a 
long stretch of beach with an occasional limestone formation worn down by powerful waves that roll in off the sea.

Connecting all of the beaches from Horseshoe Bay to Warwick Long Bay is the South Shore Park trail that can be used for hiking or for horseback riding. (See separate article).

Elbow Beach, Bermuda
Elbow Beach  in Paget Parish is a world famous beach. It is home to the internationally renown Elbow Beach Club resort (below).  However, there is also public access to the beach for non-hotel guests.

St. Catherine's Beach, Bermuda
On the eastern end of St. David's island not far from the airport is another series of beaches.  Clearwater Beach (below left) is  popular with local families.  Turtle Bay (below right) also has hiking trails and a playground for children.
EAST END

There are also several beaches in the Saint George area.  In the shadow of Fort St. Catherine is St. Catherine's beach (right).   On the other side of the fort is a small private beach Achilles Bay

WEST END

The closest beach to where the cruise ships dock is the Snorkel Park beach.  It is just on the other side of the Dockyards complex from the cruise ship berths.   There is an admission charge.

There are a number of small beaches along the West End coast such as the beach at the former Willow Bay Resort (below).
