So, I've seen a couple recent reviews of the beach, suffice to say that anyone who doesn't like this beach is mad! Yes there IS a bit of seaweed, but that doesn't take away from the half mile or so of golden sand beach. The beach is separated into two areas really - the main part of the beach is... More

I agree with the poor reviews. We were recommended to visit here by one of the waitresses at our hotel. It took some time to find the beach. The beach was covered in seaweed and we had no desire to stay. The beach bar had obviously closed some time ago and there were no other facilities nearby. More

I loved this beach. It is large and the water is usually clear and there aren't a lot of people there in comparison with a beach like Dickenson Bay. It is pretty far from town but I think it is worth the drive because it is so beautiful and peaceful. One of my favourite things about this beach is being... More

Great snorkeling, beautiful beach but go with snacks and drinks and hope you don't have to use the bathroom. More

I just saw someone wrote this beach is 'disappointing' - OMG, maybe they were at the wrong beach!! This beach is spectacular, and not touristy (there is an old resort way on the one side but not longer used), but what a wonderful beach! Just big, fat beach and crystal clear water..... It was HOT! There was no seaweed in... More

Make sure that you take some sturdy footwear; a wide brimmed hat for the intense sun (there's not much shelter around Half Moon Bay); and take plenty of drinking water. I went prepared, but I witnessed the odd tourist that were not - including their children. My wife & I, not only enjoyed the walks on the Bay, but also... More

Didn't live up to all the hype. Must have been 5mtrs of seaweed around most of the beach and the water looked pretty full of it too. Nice walk around the headland but the back of the beach is also spoilt by rubbish which is such a shame. Hopefully the seaweed will retreat soon but at the moment it's not... More

Certainly not as good as everyone has said. We just went there today (March 23) the beach is full of sea weeds, I understand that is seasonal but the rest is not that impressive. Lots of garbage around, a broken abandoned shack ( I hope that's not what people said was the bar), and the parking lot is in rough... More

Accepting that trip advisor is here to help people make informed decisions it catches in my throat to give away the details of an absolutely beautiful beach on an idyllic island which most of the time is virtually empty; don't be frightened Smiling Harry who runs the beach bar at the entry to the beach is the nicest person you...
