Beaches
Rendezvous Beach is the only non-volcanic white sand beach and is the furthest north, which is only accessible by boat or hike.
Little Bay, near Festival Village, is popular for swimming, and you can watch boats coming in and out of the Port at the northern end. Here you will find plenty of beach bars nearby.
Bunkum Bay, a hidden spot at the bottom of St Peters’ lower road (and now boasts a new beach bar); and the attractive Woodlands Beach, with a covered picnic area on the cliff above the beach. Caution - watch out for rough waves.
Lime Kiln Beach, a beach just at the end of Old Road Bay, for years a favorite bathing beach. Jumping Jack’s Beach Bar and Restaurant is nearby.
