A Seat at the Table with Luke Mathot: Leading Your Taste Buds Across Sandals and Beaches

Behind the scenes
December 8th 2023
A Seat at the Table with Luke Mathot: Leading Your Taste Buds Across Sandals and Beaches

When Luke Mathot travels, he explores with his car, his eyes, and most importantly, his taste buds. “I want the most immersive experience possible wherever I go,” Mathot says. This explains why he enjoys eating soup from paper cups in Jamaica and comparing buss up shut at roadside stands in the eastern Caribbean. It’s also why Mathot jumped at the opportunity to be at the culinary helm as Vice President of Food & Beverage Product Innovation for Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts.

We caught up with him between taste tests to find out what’s new, what’s coming, and the story behind the team innovating the food and beverage experience across Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts:

People ask me, “What is a food and beverage innovator?”

I’d never heard of it either until this position came up, and I’ve been around hospitality my entire life. My dad worked in hotels across North America & Europe and I’ve worked in four countries and major cities like London, Chicago, and Los Angeles. But with all this F&B background, I have never been involved in anything close to what we’re doing at Sandals and Beaches. It’s a responsibility I uphold alongside our incredible team of culinary disruptors. The combination of their talent, passion for local cuisine and our innate Caribbean influences are really bringing forward a locally charged experience that we are so proud of.

Beaches_Gaitan_Saturday-0166-1

Fresh conch, the Bahamian national dish, takes center-stage at Sandals Royal Bahamian.

"We’re literally using food to tell the stories of each destination.”

Let me simplify what that means. In the Bahamas, we’ll prepare conch the way the best Bahamian chefs prepare it. In Grenada, we’ll lean into unique blends of island spices. In Jamaica, we’ve rethought the ideal methods to bring out the powerful taste of jerk. Travelers have been missing great island flavors because no one has ever done this type of research and development with F&B, until now.

How do I personally get my inspiration? Well, it all starts with a rental car when I’m in the Caribbean.

I’ll drive around and ask chefs and bartenders, “Where do you eat three days before payday?” The answers have helped me find bite-size fish called sprats and a jelly man near Ocho Rios. I love sampling oxtail, the smell of curry, and eating stew from roadside stands. We won’t serve oxtail from pots or pour it into paper cups, but we will challenge ourselves to elevate local dishes and drinks. Then we can build five-star concepts around them across Sandals and Beaches. Getting all of those local flavors and influences are the key to authentic innovation.

But wait… this all started with a cocktail at Sandals Royal Bahamian.

We were testing a mango margarita one day and decided to try it with a few drops of a local hot sauce. I know what you’re thinking, but the drink was so good that we put it on tap. We didn’t plan to do that, but now we can take what we learned and tap specific drinks at every resort so guests can be assured of a consistent taste that’s distinct to the island. That’s what our guests want, and we are keen to deliver.

SRB-BarAtCoconutGrove-Cocktails-2

A new selection of delectable drinks awaits guests at Sandals Royal Bahamian's Coconut Grove Bar, including the almost-too-pretty-to-drink Dragon in the Coconut, the colorful Strawberry Guava Frose, and the Mango Mai Tai.

Our team members are our biggest inspiration.

Think about it. We have thousands of food and beverage experts at Sandals and Beaches. Almost all of them are from the Caribbean. They have grandmothers or family members with awesome recipes, secret ingredients, and unique cooking methods. My favorite days are when someone brings a dish from home. We can experiment with it, on the spot, and come up with a new menu item that’s delicious, authentic, and unique.

The other day we had one of those moments in Negril.

We were working on a dish called escalivada where you roast vegetables and wrap them together for a new Spanish concept we just launched at Sandals Negril called Brava. While the dish traditionally calls for eggplant, we decided to try charred pineapple instead. It elevated the entire dish to another level. The same kind of local knowledge led us to use callaloo in a spinach and artichoke dip and to transform crispy rice spicy tuna into smoked marlin & escoveitch on crispy bammy. We also found a technique to use butter beans instead of chickpeas in a hummus. We do that every day — blend creativity with cultural authenticity.

That’s the idea behind our “elevated gourmet takeaways.”

You know them by another name: food trucks. They make perfect sense at Sandals and Beaches. Guests often want to take something quick to the beach or to their private pool. So, we’ve introduced food trucks with local favorites like conch fritters at Sandals Royal Bahamian’s Coco Queen and Dutch beef croquettes at Sandals Royal Curaçao.

SRB---Conch-Fritters-2-1

At the Coco Queen food truck at Sandals Royal Bahamian, locally-inspired tacos and conch fritters pair perfectly with the salty air and swaying palms.

We’re just getting started with the quick service restaurants.

There will be food trucks and little brick-and-mortar joints at every resort. I’m really excited about a new barbecue place called Sweetwood at Sandals Ochi Beach Club, where we’ve decided to use local ingredients, Texas BBQ techniques, and a wood that’s indigenous to Jamaica. It’s another way to bring the story of the island into the food, and we can’t wait for our guests to try it.

Sandals Dunn’s River is one of our most important innovation stories.

The resort is full of history and cultural significance, but how do you express that in a cup or on a plate? We came up with BLŪM, a specialty coffee shop to showcase the iconic Blue Mountains and its world-renowned coffee beans. Then we took it a step further. You’re enjoying a cup of Jamaican-grown coffee in the heart of St. Ann Parish … what should you eat with it? The answer: Sweet potato pudding and gizzada. Our culinary teams learned from their grandmas how to knock those desserts out of the park, and that’s exactly what they’re doing at BLŪM.

BLUM-bk69--1--1

BLŪM—a Sandals first coffee experience—meticulously pairs flavorful desserts with authentic Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee for the perfect morning or afternoon pick-me-up.

We’re also taking guests out to eat, literally.

We call it “Island Inclusive” dining, where we invite Sandals Select Rewards Members and guests staying in top suites at Sandals Royal Curaçao and Sandals Royal Bahamian in Nassau into the community for lunch or dinner at a restaurant we’ve spent a lot of time researching (and tasting at) on the island. Our team will spend months investigating nearby restaurants to find owners who serve great food and represent the island well. One local restaurant in Curaçao, called Sal the Kitchen, cooks up these amazing local dishes in a building made of ocean material that extrudes salt. It’s an experience you’ll never forget. And trust me, all of our partner Island Inclusive restaurants are THAT good. Up next… Sandals Dunn’s River in Jamaica!

One thing to remember though… every island is different.

Roti in Jamaica is different from roti in Barbados. The best fruit in St. Lucia is different from the best fruit in the Bahamas. We honor those differences. Rum is a great example. We created Dunn’s Rum Club at Sandals Dunn’s River so guests can pair Jamaican rums with oxtail sliders and jerk-chicken. But when we open Three Jewels, the rum bar at Sandals Saint Vincent and The Grenadines, we’ll elevate the region’s best libations even further with rums from the small distilleries in the Grenadines paired with music from a collection of vintage & modern vinyl’s spinning. We want to deliver unique experiences in every facet of the vacation, rum and entertainment included!

dunn-s-rum-club-bk123-1

The Papa Doble cocktail - a masterful mix of maraschino cordial grapefruit juice and white rum, served at the new Dunn’s Rum Club at Sandals Dunn’s River.

What about showcasing the delicious healthy foods in the Caribbean?

Already on it! The Sandals Foundation helps farmers grow some of the world’s best organic produce across the Caribbean, and beyond using their fresh produce and local ingredients across our resorts every day, we’re introducing new concepts that make these ingredients the star of the show. At Beaches Negril, for example, we’re rolling out the Green Machine, where families can create bowls using fresh island ingredients as a healthy grab-and-go option and it’s excellent. Guests are seeking out more nutritional options and with the resources so bountiful around us, you can expect to see more smoothie stands, salad trucks, and Green Machines coming to more Sandals and Beaches Resorts soon.

Please don’t ask about my favorite dish… I can’t pick!

I love all the food at Sandals and Beaches like I love all my children. But … OK … whenever I arrive at Sandals Royal Bahamian, I head straight to Coco Queen for conch fritters and conch chowder (by the way, we’re introducing a takeaway item that combines chowder and fritters into a single handheld snack, and it’s amazing). In Jamaica, I used to stop along the road for jerk chicken, but now I go directly to the Jerk Shack that we’ve reimagined at Sandals Dunn’s River. I’m a harsh critic and can honestly say the jerk at Sandals and Beaches is among some of the best I’ve had. So if you haven’t tried it yet, add it to your list ASAP!

Beaches-T-C-277-1

Imbued with the taste of the tropics, the Jerk Shack at Sandals Dunn’s River presents authentic Jamaican Jerk for guests to savor.

What’s the future culinary journey look like across Sandals and Beaches, you ask?

We’re swinging for the fences. There is so much inspiration all around us… We’ve only begun to dip a toe into the possibilities with Caribbean cuisine and we’re making conscious efforts to make it shine. What I can tell you is that we will not be slowing down… besides, of course, when we stop to try the newest curry goat stand off the road on our next culinary adventure.



A Look at The New Sandals and Beaches Logos is a Look into the Future

A Look at The New Sandals and Beaches Logos is a Look into the Future

May 2023 will forever be a bold entry in the timeline of Sandals and Beaches Resorts' history. Actually, there will be two entries. One will point out magnificence: the Caribbean company unveiling its futuristic Sandals Dunn’s River resort, with Jamaica’s first beachfront sky pool suites overlooking an ocean too beautiful to be true. The other entry will point out a subtle transformation that towers over pools and can be held in the palm of your hand: the logos, refreshed and reworked for Sandals and Beaches Resorts.

House-Ind_Sandals-Beaches_Refreshed-Logos_V3

Photo: Pictured here to the right, the new Sandals and Beaches Resorts logos.

But there’s more to this than a hyped-up story about new logos — way more.

“The logos are not just efforts to change the status quo,” says Scott Peiffer, Sandals Resorts' Executive Creative Director. “There’s a much bigger purpose, and everyone should know about it.”

So, look closely. See the smooth edges in the lettering and the end strokes to wherever you want to go next? They’re connections, from the past to the future. From a couple coming to Sandals … to becoming a family and staying at Beaches. From the founder and original innovator, Gordon “Butch” Stewart … to his son and Sandals 2.0 innovator, Adam Stewart. From the resorts that have completely changed the Caribbean vacation experience … to the resorts that are changing them again.

The momentum from “then” to “next” has been gathering like a smooth wave across all Sandals and Beaches properties. The Caribbean-born company has unveiled new destinations, lavish new suites, new restaurant concepts, new uniforms, and newly imagined weddings, while quietly and carefully in the background the logos have also been undergoing remodels.

“We’re talking about iconic family brands built with an unmistakable DNA,” says Tony Cortizas, Chief Marketing Officer. “We had to be intentional about getting the logos right. It’s like owning a rare classic car. When you want something done, you entrust it only with the very best specialists.”

DJI_0673-copy-1

Pictured: The new Sandals logo can be seen from the sky adorning the Coyaba Sky Rondoval Villas at Sandals Dunn's River.

This is why Sandals brought in world-renowned architects to dream up the new Coyaba Sky Swim-up Rondoval Villas debuting at the brand new Sandals Dunn’s River. They also recruited the most sought-after culinary experts to develop flavors for the new resort including Edessa, Cascata, and Banyu. To re-imagine the logo lettering, they would reach out to another master craftsman: House Industries. You might not know House Industries by name, but you do know their lettering work for brands like Jimmy Kimmel Live, Los Angeles Tourism, Fortnite, and countless others. It’s impossible to replicate House Industries' designs because they do not use a font menu. Ken Barber of House Industries uses only his imagination and his hand moving about a millimeter a minute.

“I’d been thinking for years that if we ever went through a logo refresh, we’d have to do it the way we do everything else at Sandals and Beaches — at the highest level possible,” Peiffer says, “and House Industries and Ken would be the guys we’d want.”

The House Industries team has literally written the book on lettering (it’s called The Process Is The Inspiration), and Peiffer remembered Barber as the most influential instructor he ever had in art school. The class was typography, and Peiffer never forgot it.

house_industries-book_cover-1

Photo: House Industries’ book is a beautifully useful 400-page volume on creativity, inspiration, and more.

“I’ve never seen anyone, before or since, who could create so much meaning and emotion with hand-drawn letters. For me, to go from a student 18 years ago to becoming a collaborator with Ken, working on a heritage brand such as Sandals … this has been a dream realized.”

Before he looked at the original logos, Barber did like the couples at Sandals and families at Beaches do. He looked at everything else. He saw a colorful ocean, relaxed guests, white sand, luxurious rooms, a smiling staff, innovations everywhere, and hints of family heritage.

“I noticed distinct footprints, born in the islands,” he says, obviously inspired by the sight of a beach right after sunrise. “We wanted to preserve that spirit as we moved forward.”

House-Ind_Sandals-Beaches_Round-2

Photo: Vibrant brochure covers showcase the evolving Sandals Resorts logo throughout its over 40-year history.

When he researched the original Sandals lettering, he discovered it had always followed Butch Stewart’s courage to build resorts unlike any others. The original iconic Sandals logo took its breezy inspiration from a typeface called Mistral by a celebrated French designer.

“That was an interesting find,” Peiffer says, “because we realized from the very beginning there’s never been anything like it.”

And that’s exactly what they needed with the next version. Make the logos so smooth and clean that anyone from anywhere immediately sees Sandals and Beaches on a billowing catamaran sail, across the bottom of a pool, or on the side of a frosty rum punch. And when they see it, they’ll also feel it: pleasure, comfort, happiness.

“Perhaps most important, connect both of our beloved brands so Sandals and Beaches live in the same Caribbean family.”

Sketch5-1

Photo: Freeform sketches of Sandals logo concepts.

With all of this in mind, the creative teams went to work. They tried flat brushes and calligraphy pens. Changed tiny square edges to microscopic round edges. Adjusted an angle to 3 degrees and re-adjusted to 4 degrees. They sketched. They crumpled. They sketched again. And scribbled. There were more than 100 iterations and conversations with the Sandals creative team.

That’s what it took just to get the “S” in Sandals right.

“The ‘B’ in Beaches took a lot more time than that,” Peiffer says.

Once they had the first letter in place, they found contours to declutter, weights to harmonize, a texture to soften, and gaps the size of a grain of sand to fix.

Think about it. If there’s so much care put into the profile of the tiny hole in the letter “e” and the stroke construction of an “l,” imagine what goes into finding the ideal comfort for a soaking tub or the perfect taste of an opéra pavé.

Everything we do ties back to exceeding expectations of the guests,” says Cortizas.

Even nearly two years of re-crafting logos.

"It turned out that the marks were in need of a precision ‘trim,’ not an entirely new makeover,” says Barber, finding no irony in his personal analogy. “In the end, it was more like styling two individuals, providing them with the right aesthetic harmony to live as one.”

One, as in one love, one heart, one Caribbean family. With a little flourish at the end.

The flourish takes us back to the beginning, and to the future, on the north shore of Jamaica.

sdr-postcard

Photo: Sandals Dunn's River's nostalgic postcards nod to the iconic Arawak hotel.

There, the first guests of Sandals Dunn’s River are being introduced to the next looks of Sandals. How appropriate that it’s happening here. It would take only a few seconds to draw a line from where a couple stands on the beach to the exact spot where Gordon “Butch” Stewart became an entrepreneur as a young boy, catching fish to sell to that very hotel known as the Arawak in the late 1950’s. It would take only a few more seconds to draw a curvy line around the shoreline in the opposite direction, to a family swimming in the sea at one of the original Beaches Resorts, Beaches Ocho Rios.

Then we could stare at those lines the way we stare at a shushing surf or a logo and find meaning. See it in those lines? They connect generations. They remind us that “what was” continues to live in “what’s next.”

This is still Sandals and will always be Beaches. They’re just becoming better than ever.

Grenada Beaches: The 9 Best Beaches on the Island to Soak in the Sun

There’s an unmistakable charm to Caribbean beaches that is enough to want to plan a vacation around them, just for the peace, fun, and relaxation it is sure to bring. Grenada is one of those islands in the Caribbean where you can find some of these stunning beaches. This includes over 45 beaches, most with crystal clear waters and glittering white sand, and a few hidden gems with unique, volcanic black sand.

Before we get into the beaches, let’s talk a little about Grenada. This island nation is located in the southeast Caribbean Sea. Measuring around 135 square miles, this is one of the smaller islands of this region. Grenada is known by many as the ‘Spice Isle’ because of how many amazing and authentic spices are grown here including nutmeg, cocoa, and cinnamon.

It might be possible to take a whiff of those spices as you make your way to the various beaches around Grenada. The great news for beach explorers on this island is that all beaches are public. At most of Grenada’s beaches, you’ll be able to find lots of room to relax, try water sports, or go diving. Whatever it is that you’re looking for out of your beach day, you’re very likely to find it in Grenada. We’ve listed the best beaches as a starting point!

Good to know: The territory of Grenada is made up of three islands that also include Carriacou and Petite Martinique. Grenada is the largest island of this grouping and is the most populated as well.


The 9 Best Beaches in Grenada

Grenada may not be the largest Caribbean island but its beaches certainly have a lot to offer. The magic of this island’s beaches can be seen in their variety, which includes everything from calm and secluded stretches of sand framed by coconut trees to more entertainment-centric beach locations. Below you’ll find a list of nine of our favorite beaches to visit in Grenada!

1. Grand Anse Beach

It’ll be hard to stop yourself from making a beeline to the beautiful Grande Anse Beach just as soon as you arrive in Grenada. Fortunately, this beach is just a few minutes from Grenada’s Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND)! This crescent moon-shaped, picturesque beach on the southwest coast of Grenada overlooks Grand Anse Bay and is quite scenic.

Grand Anse Beach

Grand Anse Beach is loved for its calm waters, which are deep enough to swim around or even go diving. Water sports like kayaking are also available on this beach. As this stretch of sand is quite extensive (around two miles long), you’ll find plenty of space to unwind. As you relax on the golden sands beneath the swaying palm trees, you’ll really feel like you won the tropical beach lottery at Grand Anse.

Visiting Grand Anse Beach is free and so is parking. In terms of amenities, bathrooms, and changing rooms are available near the entrance of this beach. There’s also free Wi-Fi. At Grand Anse Beach, the only things you might have to pay for are lounge chairs and umbrellas (about $15 USD each) and something to eat. There are many beach bars and restaurants in this area. If you’d prefer to bring your own food and drinks for your beach day here, that’s perfectly alright too. Grand Anse Beach is rarely, if ever, overcrowded so it won't be hard to find a peaceful space to rest. While on Grand Anse Beach, you might also want to stroll along the nearby Carenage Harbor Promenade to admire the yachts.

2. Morne Rouge (BBC Beach)

Locals in Grenada commonly refer to Morne Rouge as BBC Beach. BBC Beach is a wonderful place to go if you’re looking for somewhere to relax and take in the island’s lovely scenery. Approximately a quarter mile in length, this beach can be found to the south of Grand Anse Beach. BBC Beach is one of the smaller beaches in Grenada, yet it can still be worthwhile to go here if you’re looking for some peace and quiet by the seaside.

From Grand Anse Beach, you can stroll to BBC Beach via the main road. Magazine Beach is also not too far from BBC Beach. Though there are more popular options than BBC Beach in Grenada, there are considerable perks to visiting this beach including nearby food and drinks. Near BBC Beach, there are three tiny bar-style restaurants where you can enjoy tasty treats and delightful, fruity cocktails. Fish tacos are also a popular option in this area.

BBC Beach is ideal if you want a beach where you can get an authentic local experience in Grenada. The water is calm and shallow here, and there’s even a cove that protects the bay. All of this bodes well for a great day of swimming, even for those with a little less experience.

3. Levera Beach

Levera Beach in Grenada is part of the 450-acre Levera National Park. This beach is located in the northern part of Grenada. Due to its ambiance and scenic nature, this beach is ideal for nature and animal lovers. One of the most interesting feats that nature enthusiasts are sure to love about this spot is that it is home to one of the largest populations of nesting leatherback sea turtles in the Caribbean. From the start of April until the end of June, you might be able to catch a glimpse of leatherback turtles coming ashore to lay their eggs.

Levera Beach Grenada

Levera Beach isn’t a great choice for swimming though. The strong currents and rugged cliffs onshore can make this activity intimidating. There are also no lifeguards in this area. Despite these drawbacks, there are still lots of reasons to visit this beach. At Levera Beach, you can explore mangroves or visit the Levera Pond for some bird watching. While in this area, it is also possible to take in views of the conical, jungle-covered Sugar Loaf Island.

4. Magazine Beach

Soft sand, a cool breeze, and a refreshing sea bath — that’s some of what you can expect to enjoy at Magazine Beach in St. George’s, Grenada. With captivating scenery, this beach is the ideal spot to soak up some sun and enjoy a swim during a Grenada vacation. There is a lot to love about Magazine Beach including the opportunity to go snorkeling and try water sports. Though the water sports options here are limited due to sometimes rough seas, you can certainly sign up for a kayaking adventure. Kayak rentals are available in this area, as are snorkeling rentals.

Magazine Beach Grenada

Magazine Beach is located near the airport in Grenada. Other than its obvious beauty, some of the other things locals and visitors love about this beach include the fact that it is a great spot to socialize. Particularly on Sundays, you can enjoy a fun island ‘lime’ complete with barbecue treats on sale including fish, lobster, and other meats. If you go on any other day, you’ll need to bring along your lunch and drinks for this beach adventure.

If you head down the southern end of Magazine Beach, you’ll find the Aquarium Restaurant which offers tasty island cuisine and live music on some days. Overall, if hiking, exploring, and trying outdoor activities are your idea of a day well spent, you’ll be glad that you chose to visit this beach.

Good to know: Sun beds and umbrellas are available for rent at Magazine Beach.


5. Bathway Beach

Bathway Beach in Grenada is well-known for its natural beauty. This beach is located within the Levera National Park in St. Patrick Parish on Grenada’s northern tip. Bathway Beach is more private and less busy than some of Grenada’s more popular or centrally located beaches. If what you want is a tranquil seaside spot with a relaxed ambiance and great scenery, Bathway Beach is an excellent choice.

Bathway Beach offers a variety of activities, including snorkeling, in addition to a beautiful space to relax. The water here is clear and conducive for spotting exotic sea life. During the day, you can expect to see lifeguards here, which is useful due to the Atlantic surf. Having said that, this beach is sufficiently sheltered to make swimming safe most of the time.

Aside from snorkeling, other fun things to do in this area include hopping on a catamaran or going boating off the coast of Bathway Beach. Keep in mind that this beach tends to be more crowded around Grenada’s national holidays. On some days, particularly on holidays, you’ll find more options to buy food and drinks. Generally, though, you might want to pack your own.

Expert tip: While at Bathway Beach, make some time to visit the town of Sauteurs, which is the fourth-largest city in Grenada. Having homemade ice cream or visiting seafood restaurants is a must in Sauteaurs.

6. Sandy Island Beach

Sandy Island Beach is hands down one of the most picturesque beaches in Grenada. It is unique in that it is located right in the middle of the ocean, and on the best days, you and your party might find that you're the only ones there! Sandy Island Beach is surrounded by lush greenery and coral reefs and it is quite serene. Those looking for a memorable beach experience in Grenada will be lucky to stumble upon this seaside gem.

Sandy Island Beach Grenada

Image credit: NewCultureDesigns/Shutterstock.com

Small and uninhabited, this sandbar beach is located near the island of Carriacou within a protected area. There is no infrastructure on Sandy Island Beach and to get there you’ll need to take a water taxi. You can find one near Paradise Beach and at some other locations in Grenada. It will cost around $15 USD per person to take a ferry to Sandy Island Beach. For a beach day at Sandy Island, you’ll need to bring adequate supplies.

In terms of what to do at Sandy Island Beach, you can relax, snorkel, sunbathe, swim, or enjoy some fun-filled activities in the ocean. Start your beach day here with an underwater exploration to see the diverse marine life, and end it relaxing while watching a breathtaking sunset.

Expert tip: When 'liming' and enjoying the beaches and waterfalls in Grenada you can bring some of the best Grenada food and drinks along with you. This is important especially if you’ll be going to more remote locations.


7. Paradise Beach

Paradise Beach is one of the most popular attractions on the island of Carriacou. Visitors to this beach can expect to find a mostly uninhabited space with miles of silky white sand, calm and shallow waters, and vibrant surrounding greenery. This beach is surrounded by thriving coral reefs as well which is great news for divers.

Paradise Beach Grenada

You’ll need to take a boat to get to Paradise Beach in Carricou. It won’t be hard to arrange this as boat operators usually offer access to Paradise Beach from several mainland beaches. Some boat tours may also be able to introduce you to the best snorkeling around Carriacou, including at Paradise Beach. Paradise Beach is quite popular and it is ideal if you’re looking for a unique, beautiful, and relaxing beach spot.

Good to know: A beach bar and a dive shop are available near this beach. There are picnic tables available as well if you want to enjoy a simple, seaside meal.


8. La Sagesse Beach

The hustle and bustle of life will be the last thing on your mind as you relax on the scenic La Sagesse Beach in Grenada. This secluded beach is located in southeast Grenada in St. David’s Parish. This beach won’t be hard to find and it is just a five-minute walk from the main road. La Sagesse is a popular option as it has both white and black sand and lots of room to explore.

La Sagesse Beach Grenada

Image credit: Hugh O'Connor/Shutterstock.com

La Sagesse Beach is great for sunbathing, swimming, and even hiking. For the latter, you can start your adventure by visiting the La Sagesse Nature Center. Here you'll be able to find out about the trails in this area and tropical gardens that you can explore as well. Enjoy bird watching and spot a variety of exotic creatures as you get more familiar with this space.

Back on the oceanfront, you might want to get into some snorkeling or scuba diving on this beach. Or, you can just relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. There’s a hotel and restaurant in this area where you can grab lunch. You can get your fill on things like locally caught fish and conch infused with Creole spices. Juices and cocktails are available too.

9. Duquesne Bay

Stunning and secluded, Duquesne Bay is located on the northwestern tip of Grenada in St. Patrick Parish. This beach is a bit on the rugged side and mostly undeveloped. Off the beaten path, you can have a beach day that’s private and away from the usual beach crowd. Secure a shady spot and admire the coconut palms that line the beach as you relax and watch the colorful fishing boats just off the coast.

Duquesne Bay Grenada

Duquesne Bay is home to a historic collection of Amerindian petroglyphs carved onto the cliffs. Much of this still remains visible after many, many years. The sands of this beach are of a darker hue than most and the waters are clear, inviting, and perfect for swimming or snorkeling.

Good to know: Even if you’ve been to some of the best beaches in Grenada you’ll likely still find more to love about them the next time you visit. Aside from the beaches, here are some more amazing things Grenada is known for.


BONUS BEACHES: More hidden gems to check out in Grenada

1. Anse De La Roche Beach

Anse De La Roche may well be worth visiting more than once while in Grenada. This is a beautiful, scenic, and secluded white sand beach that is located on the island of Carricou. To be specific, Anse De La Riche Beach is located near the northern end of Carriacou at the foot of the High North Range.

Anse La Roche Bay Carriacou Island Grenada

There are two ways that you’ll be able to get to this beach if you decide to visit Carriacou. You can either venture on a half-mile hike, or you can go there on a boat. As these options can be intimidating for some people, particularly having to walk, this beach has remained largely unspoiled. If you make the time to go here you can enjoy a pristine beach with crystal-clear waters and lots of vibrant surrounding greenery. The panoramic views here are amazing, and on some days you’ll be able to see as far as Union Island, one of the islands that make up St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

2. Petite Martinique Beach

Petit Martinique is one of the islands that you’ll be able to visit during your Grenada vacation. This island is fairly close to Grenada and you can get there by boat. Measuring just one mile across, this is the smallest of the three sister islands of this territory so you’ll be able to visit all of its beaches in a single trip.

Petite Martinique Beach Grenada

The island of Petit Martinique is sparsely developed, and this gives a hint of what you can expect from Petit Martinique Beach. Secluded with glimmering white sand, Petit Martinique Beach is ideal for a quiet beach day. To get to this beach you can either take a boat charter or catch a ferry. There are regularly scheduled ferries that run from both Grenada and Carriacou to Petit Martinique. Definitely go snorkeling if you visit Petit Martinique as the reefs around this island are healthy and teeming with fish.

Good to know: If you go to Petit Martinique, you will most likely be dropped off at the west coast’s central hub, Mang Beach. Another popular beach option on this island is Sanchez Beach.


3. Black Bay

Black Bay Beach is located on the west coast of Grenada in St. John Parish. This is one of the famous black sand beaches of this island and it’ll take some walking to get there. If you want to enjoy this unique natural attraction in Grenada, keep in mind it takes about 20 minutes of hiking from the Concord main road to get to Black Bay.

The walk here can certainly be worth it as the sights along the way are quite captivating. As you stroll along, the beach will come into view once you’re past the banana plants and other greenery in this area. Black Bay is a volcanic beach, and the sand gets its color from past volcanic eruptions of Mount Saint Catherine. This is a fairly remote beach so you’ll need to bring everything you need for your beach day including water, snacks, towels, and beach shoes (the sand can get really hot!).

Near Black Bay Beach, you can find the Concord Waterfall which is also in St. John Parish. For an even more exciting adventure, you can hike a bit further to the Black Bay Cave to view centuries-old Amerindian petroglyphs, as well as a colony of bats. Agility can come in handy here as some scrambling might be necessary along the indistinct path.


When is the best time to visit Grenada?

The best time to visit Grenada is during peak season, which runs from mid-December to mid-April. During this time of year, there tends to be more activity happening on the island, and less rain. Having said that, knowing what you want out of your trip is essential in determining the best time to go. Some of the island's most interesting events, such as Spicemas (carnival) and Independence Day, take place in August and February, respectively. Carnival time is a good time to travel if you want a truly exciting and social vacation. No matter what time of year you visit, as long as you choose the right resort and make time to do the best activities, you can be sure that your time in Grenada will be memorable.

Carlisle Bay in Antigua (not to be confused with Carlisle Bay in Barbados) is by no means a secret. This is a beach located on the south coast of Antigua, just about 40 minutes by car from St. John’s. Carlisle Bay is crescent-shaped and surrounded by palm trees. With views of catamarans and luxury yachts from this beach, the scene here can really seem like it's straight from a postcard.

Clean and crisp are two words you can use to describe this tranquil beach and a day here can be spent relaxing in the warm, calm waters or on the shore. Carlisle Beach is on the quiet side, so most of the time you’ll be one of the only people there. It won't matter though as the beautiful tones of blue of the ocean in this serene space will likely captivate you for most of your visit.

On one end of this beach, you’ll find a resort, and the other end is quieter with lots of palm trees. You can make your pick depending on the type of experience you're hoping to have. Aside from the resort, there aren’t many amenities on this beach. Sometimes there are vendors selling clothing, hats, or drinks. The scenery is great all around, particularly the surrounding green hills.

4. Half Moon Bay

On the Atlantic coast of Antigua, you'll find the quiet and isolated Half Moon Bay. The crescent shape of this beach gives it its name, and it is gorgeous. The Atlantic Ocean's influence means the waves can be quite strong here. This is exactly what makes it an excellent spot for bodysurfing and boogie boarding.

Half Moon Bay Antigua

Half Moon Bay is on the eastern shore of Antigua in Saint Philip Parish. While in Antigua, you’ll be able to get there in about 40 minutes by car from St. John’s. If you love the idea of dipping into the ocean on a beautiful beach but would prefer calmer waters, you can try getting in on the left side of the bay which is sheltered by rocks. This is also a good place to snorkel.

Couples who want to spend a few relaxing hours in the sunshine will love Half Moon Bay as it has a natural feel to it but also has the convenience factor in terms of restaurants nearby (at the end of the beach), as well as beach chair, lounger, and umbrella rentals.

Did you know?: There is also a Half Moon Bay beach on the island of Providenciales in Turks & Caicos that is home to endangered rock iguanas!

7. Turner’s Beach

Turner's Beach is a beautiful stretch of powdery white sands in Antigua. This beach is located south of Ffryes beach and Darkwood Beach.

Galleon Beach's water is calm and transparent which adds to the snorkeling experience. While snorkeling on this beach, you're likely to spot turtles, stingrays, and a plethora of tropical fish and coral. Off the coast of Galleon Beach, snorkelers can view a shipwreck as well. This wreck is located in the shallows, and it is packed with fish including large tangs, snapper, and barracuda.

Galleon Beach is surrounded by hills and has beautiful scenery. This beach offers plenty of opportunities for exploration particularly as some of the sections further away can be explored via rock scrambling. Hiking to the Pillars of Hercules is possible from Galleon Beach. This is a rocky area where natural phenomena can be observed along the cliffs. The journey from the seashore to the Pillars of Hercules should take no more than 25 minutes.

Expert tip: You may need water shoes at Galleon Beach as it is quite stony. Water shoes will come in handy if you plan on making the rocky trek from the beach to the Pillars of Hercules. Before or after spending the day at Galleon Beach, you can visit the nearby Nelson's Dockyard.


9. Long Bay Beach

There's something so peaceful about a Caribbean beach adventure, particularly one on a beach like Long Bay Beach in Antigua. Long Bay Beach is on the Atlantic side of this island. The beach is protected by a reef, so the water is mostly calm and thus ideal for swimming. During your Antigua vacation, you can get to Long Bay Beach in about 35 minutes by car from St. John’s.

Long Bay Antigua Beach

Long Bay Beach is a favorite for diving particularly if you want to snorkel. Snorkeling can be done close to shore and during this experience, you're likely to see a variety of fishes, hermit crabs, turtles, and an array of coral. Once you're done snorkeling, you can dry off and settle into a cozy spot to soak in some sun.

Long Bay Beach is hardly ever crowded so you don't have to worry about competing for the best spots. At some points in the day, it gets a bit windy on this beach so you might want to bring beach cover-ups. In terms of beach chair and umbrella rentals, some vendors offer these for the entire day at a cost of $10-$20 USD.

10. Hawksbill Bay Beaches

The Hawksbill Bay Beaches are located on the western shore of Antigua. These beaches are about a 20-minute drive from St. John’s and the cruise ship terminal. Beaches in the Hawksbill Bay region of Antigua include Royal Palm Beach, Sea Grape Beach, Honeymoon Cove, and Eden Beach. All of these beaches are quite secluded.

To access the Hawksbill Bay Beaches in Antigua, you’ll need to go inside the property of Hawksbill Resort. No worries though as all of the beaches in this area are open to the public. At least one of these beaches, Eden Beach, is a clothing-optional beach. If you decide to spend a couple of hours on any of the beaches in this area chances are you’ll have the majority of the beach to yourself during your time there.

In terms of how secluded these beaches are, well … you can probably compare them to other beaches on the island to measure this. Compared to beaches like Dickenson Bay, the Hawksbill Bay Beaches are definitely more on the quiet side. While in Antigua, you can plan a trip to this beach to go sea shell hunting, or just to relax and admire the amazing ocean views.

11. Fort James Beach

Fort James Beach on the western shore of Antigua is one of those beaches that just takes your breath away at first glimpse. This won’t be due to any grandeur or anything showy, but simply because of its natural beauty and serene outlook. This beach is as unspoiled as it gets, yet there are a few eateries and bars not far from the coastline.

Fort James Beach Antigua

Image credit: EQRoy/Shutterstock.com

You can get to Fort James Beach in just about 6 minutes if you drive there from St. John's, the capital. Though there are restaurants at both ends of the beach, Fort James for the most part remains quiet. Locals love this beach as it is ideal for lounging and swimming. There’s also parking, public showers, and umbrella and beach chair rentals available, with lots of room to roam and enjoy your beach day.

Good to know: The water at Fort James Beach can be a little turbulent at times, so this beach is not a great option for kids or weak swimmers.


When is the best time to visit Antigua for a beach vacation?

The best time to visit Antigua for a beach vacation is during the island's high season. This is during the months of mid-December to mid-April. Though this island has amazing weather throughout the year, it is even better during these months which mark the high season. During this time, the weather tends to be more sunny and consistent.

Sandals Grande Antigua Beach Aerial Front

During the high season, Antigua is actually slightly less hot, which might be a good thing if you plan on spending lots of time outdoors. You're also less likely to have rain interruptions in your trip if you travel during the island’s peak season. Vacationing at one of the island’s best couples resorts will also be a blast during peak season.

Aside from the high season, you might want to visit Antigua between the months of May and November.

A Day In The Life Of Sesame Street's Julia At Beaches Resorts

Have you met Julia?

Sesame Workshop debuted Sesame Street and Autism: See Amazing in All Children in 2015 with the introduction of Julia, a 4-year-old Muppet who is autistic. Julia made her way from Sesame Street to Beaches Resorts back in April of 2017, in celebration of Autism Acceptance Month. Five years later, Autism Acceptance Month is upon us again, and what better way to celebrate than to check in on our amazing friend, Julia.

Beaches Resorts, the Luxury Included Family Resort brand, was the first all-inclusive company in the world to complete the rigorous IBCCES(International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards) and Autism Certification, achieving the gold standard in global cognitive disorder training and certification. Today, Beaches continues its commitment to this audience and being the resort for everyone and is the only resort company in the world accredited as an Advanced Certified Autism Center (ACAC).

With 1 in 44 children diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder in the United States alone, Beaches Resorts is a luxury vacation experience where kids and adults on the spectrum can feel safe, be loved, and above all, enjoy a fun-filled family getaway!



Now, let’s follow Julia through a typical day at Beaches Resorts!

Time for Camp!


When she’s ready in the morning, Julia heads to Beaches’ Kids Camp! Beaches Resorts’ Kids Camps are open to kids of all ages and are supervised by a team of nannies and staffers who are members of the International Nanny Association and have all been advanced-level certified by IBCCES. To receive accreditation, Beaches’ nannies have logged more than 2,000 hours of child-care services and have been trained in safety, nutrition, and child development. For children on the spectrum, our Kids Camp team members have the requisite knowledge, skills, and expertise to ensure a great day at camp.

At camp, Julia loves to play with her toys, and she’s always sure to bring her own beloved stuffed bunny, Fluffster. The Beaches Kids Camp also has sensory toys for children with autism, like Twiddles. Twiddles are playful comfort aids designed for people with sensory-related conditions. Twiddles keep children’s minds active, engaged and calm during playtime.

But most of all, Julia loves to paint! During ‘Amazing Art with Julia’, children can express themselves through art using a wide range of materials, and afterwards, they talk about how their artwork is a celebration of who they are and their unique selves!

Off to Meet the Beaches Buddies!


After her activities at the Kids Camp, Julia stops by to say hello to her friends that have hired the personalized service of a One-on-One Beaches Buddy.

Traveling to a new place can be overwhelming to anyone, especially a child on the autism spectrum. The Beaches Buddy Program works to make visitors feel more at home with activities that can be tailored towards both kids and adults on the spectrum. Guests can organize through Special Services or once they are on a resort, a One-on-One Beaches Buddy who has been accredited by IBCCES in advance autism training, for their entire stay or just for a few hours, available at an additional cost.

Together, Beaches Buddies experience the Caribbean on their own time. They may start the day at the beach, go snorkeling with all the colorful fish and coral resting atop the sand, or simply stroll around the resort and get acquainted.

Next, Julia says hi to her friends at the Aqua Center who are learning how to scuba dive. Many individuals on the autism spectrum are drawn to water, and the Autism Spectrum Disorder Foundation (ASDF) highlights that swimming can help children improve speech, coordination and balance, social skills, self-esteem, cognitive processing, communication and oral motor skills.

In collaboration with the Professional Association of Dive Instructors (PADI), the Beaches Resorts water sports staff and its Aqua Centers have completed advanced autism training and certification so that visiting families, including those on the spectrum, can be exposed to the sights of the underwater world.

Time for Lunch!


Spending the morning meeting new friends and participating in fun-filled activities can make Julia hungry! Rest assured there are plenty of dining options, from pizza to frozen yogurt with all the toppings to everything in between. Julia especially loves pizza!

Children with autism may experience extreme sensitivity to the flavors, colors, smells, and textures of foods. Often, children with autism have strong preferences or hardened routines around mealtime, sometimes wanting the same foods, served on the same plate, at the same time each day.

The Beaches Culinary Concierge Team makes mealtime easy by working directly with their executive chefs, sous chefs, and restaurant managers to guide guests through all its restaurant offerings and help create custom menus that fit your family’s special dietary needs.

With a little help from the Beaches Culinary Concierge, families can be sure to have all their dietary needs met. In advance of your travel, you can complete your personalized Culinary Assessment.

Catching Z’s at Quiet Time


While Julia is winding down and enjoying some quiet time, families with children on the autism spectrum can also check out a Dreampad from the Beaches’ Kids Camp. Designed for children with high levels of anxiety or autism, Dreampads are pillows that help calm children and lull them into more restful sleep. They also play audio and send vibrations through a solid pillow, stimulating the vagus nerve and activating the parasympathetic nervous system.

When Julia is looking for some quiet time and less sensory stimulation, she can go to one of her favorite low-sensory zones at Beaches Resorts. Some of these locations include the library in the Key West Village at Beaches Turks & Caicos; or the big lawn at Beaches Ocho Rios; and at Beaches Negril, the sunken garden or the Big Top Amphitheater during the daytime.

We’re the Resorts For Everyone, and We Mean It!


Each day at Beaches Resorts brings a new adventure for Julia, allowing her to explore, learn new things, and make friends in her “Julia sort of way.” At Beaches, we’re proud to offer all children engaging activities so all families can enjoy an award-winning, Luxury Included vacation.

The best part of island vacations has got to be the beaches. Sure, there’s lots of things to enjoy in your dream destination in and out of your resort, but what would an island vacation be like without a palm-fringed beach?

Curaçao has some of the best beaches in the world. To ensure you spend less time beach hunting and more time enjoying the sunshine, we’ve compiled a ranked list of the 23 best beaches in Curaçao (and two smaller hidden beaches!) that are sure to add good times to your vacation, and not to mention some pretty amazing photos.

Read on and be sure to note your top picks.

23. Santa Martha Bay

If picture-perfect views are what you’re after Santa Martha Bay beckons in the most serene way. This beach near the village of Soto in Curaçao is beautiful, but on the quieter side. If you choose to venture out here it’s a good idea to go with a group that includes people who’re familiar with the beach.


22. Sint Joris Bay Beach

Sint Joris Bay Beach in the north of Curaçao is just where you need to be if a day of kite surfing is your idea of a good time. Whether you’re looking to get into the action yourself or just want to watch other kiteboarders in action you’ll be in perfect company at Sint Joris Bay. If you’re new to kite surfing you’ll be able to sign up for lessons on the beach that’ll help you get comfortable in the water. Access to the beach and parking are both free.


21. Playa Canoa

Playa Canoa

In the north of Curaçao Playa Canoa calls out to beach lovers who prefer a more rugged experience. This is a stunning beach setting, and there’s a small inlet where you’ll be able to swim. Playa Canoa is quite rocky and often there’s large waves on this beach. As such, a beach experience here is less about sunbathing on sandy shores and more about surfing for those who choose to go.


20. Caracas Bay

Caracas-Bay

Caracas Bay beach is part of the Curaçao Underwater Park off the island’s southeast coast. This beach is popular with residents of the island and that has a lot to do with it’s convenience; there’s no admission fee and there’s also a number of small restaurants in this area. With calm sea conditions most of the time, you can have a pretty decent dive experience here.


19. Director’s Bay Beach

Directors-Bay-Beach

Director’s Bay Beach on the southeastern coast of Curaçao is also known as Lover’s Beach. This beach was once privately owned and resumed public status as of 1985. Director’s Bay is relatively secluded and surrounded by limestone cliffs. It’s a great choice for diving with a steep drop off close to shore. Some of the marine life you’re likely to spot beneath the waves in this area are eels, sea horses, octopi, blue parrotfish, yellowtail snapper and various sponges. There’s also a sunken ship known as Tugboat here as well.


18. Cabana Beach

Cabana Beach is that carefree beach you’ve probably seen in your dreams. Those all-too-vivid dreams where you’re laid out in brand new swimming gear, staring up into clear blue skies, with palm trees in the vicinity. In real life, this beach is beautiful, and as tropical as they come. There’s a restaurant and bar here as well and more than likely, you won’t regret choosing to spend some time here during your vacation in Curaçao.


17. Kokomo Beach

Kokomo-Beach

The Beach Boys made searching for Kokomo a real thing with their 1988 hit song, ‘Kokomo’. The truth of that matter is, the feel good jam sounds good on any Caribbean beach, but it’ll sound even more amazing as you lay back and relax at Curaçao’s very own Kokomo Beach.

This beach is about 15 minutes from Willemstad in Vearsenbaai (Vearsen Bay), and it really lights up on weekends. During the week there’s less people, so that can be a good time to go if you want a more peaceful experience. There’s a restaurant on the beach and an in-water swing set as well. There’s also a dive center and lots of cosy spots to lounge around. Around sunset is a great time to be on the beach as well; there’s often live music and delicious food being served up at the Kokomo Beach restaurant.


16. Karakter Beach

Aside from the fact that Karakter Beach is simply magnetizing, there’s a pretty awesome restaurant on the beach as well that can really add some flavor to your beach day. On the menu of this beachside restaurant are options like tapas, grilled fish, and a range of other items served up in the most delectable way. A romantic beachside dinner after a day of lounging in the sun will definitely be a possibility here.


15. Playa Santa Cruz

Private cabanas, bird watching opportunities with a nearby mangrove, and massages on the beach. This is some of what you can expect to find at Playa Santa Cruz which is quite the delightful beach location. With lots of space to roam around freely, Playa Santa Cruz is perfect for unwinding and getting back in touch with nature. There’s a bar, restaurant, and restrooms available here.


14. Jan Thiel Beach

Jan Thiel Beach is as energetic as beaches come and it appeals to beach goers looking for an action-packed day. Or a really quiet one… it’s entirely up to you. Spending the day here will give you lots of options of things to do; from watersports to beach side dining. You can enjoy the sand and sea and somewhere in between pay a visit to one of the nearby beach clubs where there’s always plenty of food options including stone oven pizza and BBQ meals. This is a great spot if you’re looking to enjoy a day outside of your resort. There’s an entrance fee, and you’ll also need to pay for beach chair rentals and parking.


13. Daaibooi Beach

Daaibooi Beach is great for a casual beach day. It’s not a fussy beach, but most who go there appreciate that in addition to just enjoying the ocean, its possible to enjoy some Dutch goodies and fried food from beach vendors. Some of the items you can try include Broodje Kroket (bread with fried meat), bamischijf (fried bami), fresh fish and fries, and more.

Playa Gipy

Near the village of Westpunt, you’ll find Playa Gipy which is a small, wild and rocky beach. This isn’t a very touristy beach, and for many visitors it can be difficult to find. In fact, sometimes the people who stumble upon this beach are those who go looking for the lighthouse in this area, so in that sense getting to Playa Gipy can be quite the welcome surprise. In calm weather, you can dive in this location. It is only recommended to do so with a guide.

Playa Santu Pretu

Santu Pretu translates to black sand, and that is just what you’ll find on this Curaçao strand. This beach is relatively secluded with the surrounding natural elements mostly untouched. The road leading to Santu Pretu is closed, but you’ll be able to get to the beach with a 10 minute walk or by boat. There are no beach facilities here, but the snorkelling is pretty awesome.

2. Love Beach

love beach nassau

Love Beach is a dream you won’t want to wake up from, and you won’t have to – at least not for the duration of your vacation! Among the most interesting features on this beach are its natural rock pools, hammocks and cabanas. Love Beach is quiet, calm, perfect for a romantic stroll, and even good for family beach days. It is one of the most popular beaches for locals living in the west of New Providence. Love Beach is also a great spot for snorkeling with a 40-acre protected coral reef about one mile offshore. Early morning snorkeling tends to be better, with greater visibility, but you’re bound to see something exciting once you go. The Nirvana Beach bar is always a vibe and a great place to get a cold cocktail. This beach is located quite near the airport, so you can expect to have the best view of low flying air crafts of all sorts and sizes, which can be exciting to watch!

How to get there: If you taking a public bus to this location, take the 12a or 12b bus (jitney), then ask the driver to take you as close as possible to the beach without going off his route. You can also take a cab, which is a little more expensive, but more convenient.


3. Jaws Beach

jaws beach nassau

Unlike the movie that left the most jittery of us scared to set foot into open water, Jaws beach in the Bahamas will lure you in without hesitation. Jaws Beach is a top-rated Nassau beach, and will have you snapping photos and capturing moments like there is no tomorrow. This is even more likely considering the beach was once used as a filming location for the final installment of the “Jaws” movie. Some people visit this beach just for its cinematic value, but most visit based on reviews, which promote Jaws as a off the beaten track beach, loved by locals. Jaws beach is located within the Clifton Heritage Park.

How to get there: You can take the 12B jitney to get to this beach, but make a point of letting the driver know your destination beforehand as the buses don’t always pass near the beach. You will need to make arrangements with the driver to pick you up afterward, as buses to and from this area are not always reliable.


4. Cabbage Beach

Cabbage beach is one of the top picks for lounging on the sand with a sea view while in the Bahamas. It is often described as one of the best beaches in Nassau and lives up to the hype. As this beach is tourist friendly, you will find various water excursions on this beach, including parasailing and water skiing. Near this Nassau beach you’ll find various resorts, bars, restaurants, and shops, but that is of course, if you’re willing to tear yourself away from the tantalizing turquoise, blues and greens of the ocean. While you’re at the expansive Cabbage Beach, you may want to join the plethora of jet ski lovers racing around, or find somewhere quiet to take in the beachside views. Cabbage beach can get busy and you might get hustled by beach vendors now and then, but it’s large enough to find a quiet spot as well!

How to get there: To get there, you will first need to make your way over to Paradise Island. To do this you will need to cross over the Paradise island bridge (either by car or by foot).

While you’re unlikely to find any Arawak Indians here (or just maybe you might), you are sure to find the relaxation you’re seeking out of a Caribbean beach vacation. At this Nassau beach you’ll get the best of both worlds, as with many of the beaches in the Bahamas – you can find a peaceful spot if you so desire, or somewhere where you’re able to take in the social scene. The shallow waters here are an attraction for families with children and people who want to have an easy snorkeling experience in pristine and clear waters. The downside to this beach is that there are no rest rooms, so you’ll need to plan accordingly.

How to get there: Arawak beach is located about three miles from downtown Nassau, and it is recommended that you take a taxi to get there. If you plan on travelling in a private car (rental), keep in mind the $2 toll fee.


7. Caves Beach

caves beach nassau

Some people go to the beach for the excitement, and others just to find the sort of serenity you can only find near an ocean. Caves beach is perfect for the latter, as it is one of the more secluded beaches in the Bahamas. There are many limestone caves that can be seen along the edges of this beach, and that is where the beach got its name. As history tells it, the caves once provided shelter for native Indians, but they do come in handy as a shelter in rainy weather. Caves beach is perfect for relaxing and exploring, and from time to time, you can find a local tour guide on site who’ll be more than happy to take you around.

How to get there: Caves beach is located to the west of Cable beach. It is near the main road, and will be easy to find if you stick to the coast.

Throughout the year you can find ‘Spring-break’ inspired events happening here, especially in December to early January, when the Bahamas hosts its popular Junkanoo celebration. Junkanoo beach is located within walking distance from the cruise terminal, and in an area with several restaurants and bars; you’ll have no issues as far as sourcing food and drinks. This is the perfect beach for those who like convenience and fun. From the up close and personal view of the cruise ships, to the blaring music some of the beach bars play to attract a crowd, there’s no shortage of excitement on these shores. Junkanoo beach isn’t the most serene in the Bahamas, but it is perfect for a good time!

How to get there: Junkanoo beach is located near to downtown, and close to the cruise ship port (10-15 minutes), so you can take a brisk walk there, or a cab if you choose. If walking, head west along Woods Rogers walk or Bay Street. Keep along the coast, and you won’t miss it. There are also signs to point you in the right direction.


10. Adelaide Beach

adelaide beach nassau

A bit off-the-radar, Adelaide beach is a hidden treasure of the best variety. Both locals and tourists love this Nassau beach, though on a typical day you can expect to have the beach mostly to yourself. This beach has a similar feel to some of the out-island beaches, but in much closer proximity to the more populated parts of the Bahamas. Once you get there, you might find some locals playing dominoes or listening to music. People from the Bahamas are super friendly, so don’t be surprised if you’re offered a taste of the famous local Kalik beer!

How to get there: Adelaide is located south of Old Fort Bay, on the south western coast of the island. Your best bet to get there is renting a taxi to this location, or hiring a vehicle. A taxi may get you there quicker, if you’re not up for the exploration.


11. Coral Harbor

coral harbor beach nassau

From hammocks swaying in the wind, to upbeat horse-riding tours, Coral Harbor has a different feel as compared to some of the other beaches on New Providence Island. For one, it’s a little more secluded. It’s also one of the only Nassau beaches where you can partake in a fun horse-riding tour, right on the beach front. Coral Harbor beach is spacious, and relatively undiscovered, so you won’t have to worry about it being overcrowded. Just pick a spot, spend some time cooling off in the sea breeze on the beachside hammock, and plan to make some time for horse-back riding later!

How to get there: Take a taxi, or drive (rental) to the south western coast of the island. You will find Coral Harbor beach at the end of Coral Harbor Road.


12. Montagu Beach

montagu beach nassau

Montagu Beach is popular for picnics, and generally cooling off in the refreshing oceanside breezes. It’s a smaller beach and often busy, but not as busy as Cable, Junkanoo, or Cabbage beaches. Montagu scores added points for the fact that it is well maintained, and located near the historic Fort Montagu, Nassau’s oldest fort. Montagu requires a little caution when swimming out beyond the designated areas, as there is a lot of boat traffic between Paradise Island and Nassau, where it is located. Still, it is known and loved by both locals and tourists, and a beautiful sight to behold.

How to get there: Montagu is located to the east of the Paradise Island Bridge, off East Bay Street. Stay close to the coast, and you’ll find it easily. Most taxis on island will be able to take you to and from this location. Make plans with your taxi driver in advance for pick up once you’re done.

Beaches are overall a liberating space, but while on vacation there are a few things to keep in mind which can make your holiday that much smoother. Unlike some beaches in the United States, there are very few beach rules in the Bahamas, but here are some things you should know.

  • Don’t litter. You can find trash cans on most beaches, but if you don’t, take your trash with you.
  • Some beaches do not allow skinny dipping. Find out from your local resort or tour company ahead of time.
  • Some beaches near resorts or residential areas may have rules about amplified music on the beach. Use your discretion.
  • Don’t take away conch shells or other forbidden items without seeking permission.


Protect your belongings

It can be hard to keep an eye on your belongings when all you want to do is make the most of your time at the beach. Here are a few ways to stay worry free during your beach vacation:

  • Leave your valuables at home.
  • Travel with just as much cash as you need.
  • Whether you’re on a secluded or more crowded beach, be aware of your surroundings.


Beach safety tips for the Bahamas

  • Use sunblock.
  • Be aware of safety signs.
  • Do not swim while intoxicated.
  • Don’t go to secluded beaches alone.
  • Be aware of rip currents.
  • Stay hydrated to prevent heat exhaustion
  • Always swim in jet ski free zones.
  • Encourage kids to wear beach shoes on rocky beaches to prevent injury.
  • Steer clear of beaches populated with jellyfish to avoid being stung.
  • Be aware of Sea-thimble/Sea lice season (small jellyfish) in the Bahamas in the months of April until July.



So, when to go?

The best time to visit the Bahamas for perfect beach weather is in the high season, which is between the months of December and mid-April. If you’re traveling in the high season, it is best to book two or three months in advance to ensure availability of both flights and accommodation.

The shoulder season is the next best time to go, and is between the months of May through July. You’ll find less activities on the island during this time, but more chances of securing your first choice of accommodation with less congested resorts.

The low season is from August to November. Low season travel is ideal for people who’re looking for a less crowded time to visit the islands.

All in all, there’s no bad time to travel to the Bahamas to check out its best beaches. Choose the time that works for both you and your partner, and you’ll be well on your way to the vacation of a lifetime!

Sandals Foundation Added to Wedding & Honeymoon Gift Registry
Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts are proud to present a very unique way for couples to celebrate their weddings, honeymoons or WeddingMoons® while helping members of the Caribbean community at the same time.  A new addition to Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts online registry program, powered by Honeymoon Wishes, now gives couples – and their family and friends alike – who are celebrating their joyous occasions the opportunity to give back through a donation to the Sandals Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Sandals Resorts International. 
Learn How to Mix, Blend & Scratch at our Scratch DJ® Academy
For many of us, music can set a tone, create a mood or emit an emotion. It may seem as simple as turning on the radio or popping in a CD, but creating the right mix is more than just spinning a record; it’s both an art form and a passion that DJs have learned to master.  At Beaches® Resorts, we offer tweens, teens and parents alike the opportunity to “release their inner DJ” with our exclusive Scratch DJ® Academy. Whether you’re looking to explore a new craft, perform for an audience or bond with the family, our world famous Scratch DJ Academy gives families an exclusive sneak peek into the world of a DJ.  On your next luxury all-inclusive Beaches vacation, you can learn how to mix, blend and scratch on vinyl records, CD’s and even your IPod, and because at Beaches Resorts we always want to give you MORE, as part of this exclusive program, there are a variety of different packages you can purchase that will let you step into the world of music masters.    Learn how to mix and blend with our 40 minute Mixing Session which includes a dog tag and certificate. Style and flair can be added to the music set by learning the art form of our 40 minute Scratching Session which also includes a dog tag and certificate. Even parents can be deemed as “cool” with our 60 minute Family Combo jam session, where everyone will learn what it takes to be a DJ. If kids are really looking to be creative, we even offer a Spin Art Session where they can paint their own musical designs on to vinyl records as they spin, mix and scratch. This also makes for a fun souvenir of their time spent at Beaches.To learn more about our Scratch DJ® Academy program and to reserve your spot now, please visit:
