Our family spent one day at this beach in early April. The water was shallow and relatively calm. My young kids really enjoyed play in the water, and I felt safe enough to just watch over them at the beach. The water was really clear. We could see fish swam around us! The sand was fine and comfortable to walk... More

Snorkeling was great but it will probably be ruined soon with all the new construction. More

People are very friendly and the beach is beautiful. Plenty of shade if you don't want to spend the entire time in the sun. More

We visited this beach as an excursion while on a cruise. It was a beautiful beach with clear water and lots of fish to see. We arrived early in the morning which was the best because it became crowded later on with other cruisers. We took a nice clean small bus to the beach. It took about 30 minutes to... More

Some of the best fish and reefs I have seen. Each day we saw something new-- lion fish, sea snake, huge parrot fish, strange squid things, and healthy beautiful coral. Even for those who are apprehensive about snorkeling can see schools of fish within standing depth. For those who love to swim further, the changes in depths and shades of... More

My 14 year old son and I visited this beach last week as part of an excursion through Carnival. We first ziplined and were then taken to the beach. It was beautiful, plenty of chairs and shade if you wanted it. The little shops were fantastic. I was so sad when it was time to leave. We did snorkel and... More

Clint was GREAT! So helpful and this place was amazing. Going through Clint directly was more affordable than the cruise ship and left us room to travel other parts of the island. It was also great because Clint was very helpful and knowledgeable. We did SNUBA with Ryan and had the best time. My son still says it was the... More

The beach here used to be pristine and the reef was spectacular, that is until Tabyana's greed destroyed it all. Put out more people in the water to patrol this free for all. I see the staff members watching the people throw dirty used diapers in the water and walk all over the coral and they never say a word.... More

The food was delicious. There was live music, a clean beach, and beautiful water. There were activities on site- snorkel rental, water play, parasailing, massages etc. There were a lot of panhandlers trying to sell stuff though. More
