    General Tips:
    Widemouth Bay
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: We find that Widemouth Bay is a great place to 'chill out', especially on a warm day, LOL! But it is exposed, so don't go there on a windy or overcast day.

  • Favorite Thing: If you have young children, they will just love looking in the rock pools here, trying to find small crabs and fishes, shrimps and other sea-life. The main beach is guarded by Lifeguards, so don't be tempted to bathe near the rocks!

    General Tips:
    Widemouth Bay again!!
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: This is the beach near Black Rock. It's not all rocky, and there is ample soft sand for everyone, including your dog. This end of the beach is usually quite peaceful, even in the high season.
