Our favorite beach during our Caribbean cruise. Sand is powdery and almost has a hint of pink. About 15 minutes from the port and $5 each way in an air conditioned taxi van. We booked a snorkel tour with Harbour Lights, highly recommend. It’s $35 pp and includes a reserved beach chair, umbrella, and snorkeling near the shipwreck and another spot with turtles.

We had a wonderful time with our 2yo. The resort is incredible, the staff extremely friendly and the amenities are great. The beach is extremely well kept with plenty of loungers, towels, included non-motorized water sports, and efficient food/drink service.

Although it's pricey, the quality justifies the price. Highly recommended, would go...
