Horseshoe Bay, Bermuda

Horseshoe Bay, Bermuda

Horseshoe Bay is perhaps the most famous beach in Bermuda. A very popular tourist spot, it lies on the main island's south (Atlantic Ocean) coast, in the parish of Southampton. The beach is equipped with one lifegaurd station which is manned during the summer between 10AM and 6PM. There is also a cafe where one can purchase lunch during the summer months, toilet facilities and a foot-washing area for removing sand before departing. A shuttle bus is available to transport beach-goers between the beach and the nearest bus stop.

-A beach volleyball competition takes place once a week in the summer months, and is a regular activity for both tourists and locals alike.
- Horseshoe Bay is also the usual location for a New Years party organised by those members of the significant ex-pat population who have not opted to go overseas for the season.
