Carved into the base of a sheer cliff on one side, this North Shore beach is famous for its picturesque setting. Rain showers occur often on this part of the island—bring a water-resistant shell. Walk, play Frisbee, or build a sand castle, but swim only at the western-most curve of the bay, where waves may be calmer.
