Taking a Holiday at Horseshoe Bay Beach, Southampton Parish, Bermuda

Last Updated August 2024 by Sam Lawson

If you're arriving to Bermuda on a cruise ship then Horseshoe Bay beach is probably top of your beach itinerary. This stunning beach, with its powdery pink sand and turquoise waters, is one of the most popular and picturesque beaches on the island. Relax on the shore, soak up the sun, and enjoy various activities that cater to all ages and interests.

Due to it's popularity among cruise ship visitors who tend to descend upon the beach on mass during their first day on Bermuda, the beach can get very crowded. If you're on a cruise go early morning or late afternoon, or better still go early on the 2nd day of your island visit as most of your fellow cruisers will already have been on the 1st day.

If you're not on a cruise then visit the beach on days when there isn't a cruise ship in town, unless you like crowds that is. As a quieter alternative you may also pick a beach that's not promoted by the cruise liners such as nearby Elbow beach.
