Down below Sam Lord's Castle, this coconut-lined, windswept bay doesn't get many visitors. It's not a safe place for swimming, but is a good place for a stroll. Road access runs through the Sam Lord's Castle hotel construction site however this access may become limited when the hotel finally opens. An alternative access ramp leads down to the beach from the end of the wall at the extreme southern end of the complex.
