Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a narrow, curved sandy beach lined with dive resorts, hotels, restaurants, bars and dive shops along a waterfront promenade. The bay is busy with dive boats and outrigger bancas anchored offshore and departing throughout the day. The water is clear for swimming, snorkeling and especially scuba diving on nearby reefs in the Verde Island Passage. The area is more developed and lively than White Beach, with a compact commercial strip directly behind the sand.
