Bermudas Beaches - Warwick Parish

Chaplin’s Bay (South Shore Park, South Road) This little cove/bay is partially in Southampton Parish and partially in Warwick. It’s nother of those picturesque little spots that makes this area so pleasantand appealing. It’s a popular spot, and is often too busy for those who like to get away from it all. But, if you get there in the early morning, you’re likely to have it all to yourself.

Jobson’s Cove (South Shore Park, South Road) One of the most popular spots on the South Shore with bus service every 20 to 30 minutes. You’re sure to enjoy a visit to Jobson’s. It’s rather tiny as beaches go – just a few square yards, in fact – but visually it’s spectacular. This is another ideal spot to take the kids, for the tiny cove is completely surrounded by rocks, making the shallow waters unusually calm most of the time. The sand is fine and pink, and the beach is sheltered from even the strongest breezes. It’s a great spot for a picnic. At least it would be if it weren’t quite so busy. Get there early and pick your spot.

Astwood Cove Beach (Astwood Park, South Road) is at the eastern end of Warwick Long Bay. Like to do a little birdwatching? Then this is the place for you. The park itself is somewhat different from South Shore Park in that there are more open spaces. Narrow footpaths thread this way and that along the cliff-tops, through fields and thicket, allowing you to get closer to nature. The inviting beach has fine sand and the sea, though a little rough at times, is ideal for snorkeling, especially among the rocks just offshore. While it’s a great place for the more adventurous older kids, you’ll need to keep an eye on the littler ones, and stay with them when they venture into Read the full review
