OTHER BEACHES
•Galley Bay faces west and is an ideal
place for sur ng fans, although one end of
the beach has a very calm sea, perfect for
a relaxing swim. The beach is reached from Five Islands Village.
• Dickenson Bay, the most famous beach on the island, fronts several big hotels. Here you can practise water sports and in the evening the beach becomes a popular meeting place. • Fort Bay is near St. John’s and next to Fort James that takes its name from the king who reigned at the time the fort was built. Here is Beachlimerz for lunch with traditional dishes, umbrellas and deck chairs for rent.
