NEARBY BEACHES
PARSONS BAY (6 minutes walk) is a little off the beaten track, but it's well worth the effort to reach this secluded, sheltered beach on Bermuda's West End. The beach has coarse, white sand and shallow, calm water that's perfect for swimming and splashing around with the whole family. There are no restrooms or other facilities here, making it a less visited spot that's great for travellers seeking out tranquil beaches.
BLACK BAY BEACH AND PARK (5 minutes walk) is a string of three tiny coves with beaches that come and go with the tide. Bring a lunch and enjoy the peaceful views from the picnic table. The waters here are shallow and calm, and you can often find colourful sea glass scattered along the beaches.
SNORKEL PARK BEACH (17 mins walk or 4 mins by bus) Spend a relaxing day swimming and snorkelling in the crystal-clear lagoon at Snorkel Park Beach, part of the Royal Naval Dockyard complex on the West End. The historic Keep Fort presides over one end of the beach; dip into the shallow reefs and you’ll find sunken cannons and a variety of colourful fish. Snorkel Park Beach has everything you need for the day – from a beach bar and restaurant to bathrooms, lockers and water sports rentals. It's open every day, and Sundays often feature live music and family-friendly events. A few evenings a week, Snorkel Park transforms into a nightclub called Club Aqua, with drinks and dancing for the 18-and-up crowd. Admission charged for entry and can be crowded when the Cruise ships are in port.
SOMERSET LONG BAY AND NATURE RESERVE (7 minutes by taxi, twizy or moped) is a secluded beach and incorporates peaceful walking trails and a nature reserve. The family-friendly park has a playground, bathrooms and picnic areas, while the surrounding reserve has trails to freshwater ponds that attract migrating birds during the spring and fall.
