FRIAR'S BAY BEACH

With its turquoise waters, white sand and reggae atmosphere, Friar's Bay beach is a favorite with tourists and locals alike. Sheltered from the swell, the bay is ideal for swimming with children, and is particularly popular at weekends (barbecues and loud music). A sailing club offers courses for children and paddle and kayak rentals. Three bars-restaurants line the sand, with Caribbean and French ambiances and flavors. Full Moon Parties are held regularly. Free parking.
