Probably the most popular beach is Horseshoe Bay. The beach
has facilities including changing rooms and food services. People
tend to congregate at the end of the beach nearest the facilities. As
a result, the further end is more secluded with impressive rock
formations creating more intimate beaches.

beach.
The islands are coral formations atop the
remnants of an underwater volcano. Over the
centuries, the ocean has worn the coral and stone
down so that the islands have an abundance of
sandy beaches. On some of these, the white sand
has mixed with red giving the beach a pink cast.
The erosion has also created dramatic rock
formations.
Pictured here is perhaps the most attractive set of
beaches situated along the southwestern coast in
Warwick and Southampton Parishes.
