Location
From Harmony Park Beach, continue straight along the road, until you pass Harbour Island, and take a right turn at the BP petrol station on to Beach road again.
Surrounding Area
There is a well known seafood take aways called Trawlers, you have to eat there if you are going to Gordon's Bay. other attractions include the Old Mall, novelty shops, a book shop and other restaurants.
The Beach
I arrived there when it was high tide and the water was this milky blue shine, which was very cool looking. The water depth changed almost instantly from shallow to waist height, but manageable and not to rough of a beach.
There was however barely any places to sit on the beach as the water took most of the beach away, but there is the grass area to relax on and also the parking area is just opposite the beach,
There was a few floating seaweed thingies floating by, but nothing to slimy or creepy looking, I would recommend going in the early afternoon just to get this high tide waters.
