The beach is absolutely stunning with its pristine and spacious white sand. What's great is that there is no entry fee, and there is a decent amount of parking available. Additionally, you'll find a food truck and a bar right on the beach. The restrooms are also modern and well-maintained.

The beach is fantastic, it's nearly as beautiful as Trunk Bay but with fewer crowds and fees. The snorkeling experience here is absolutely incredible, especially around the center of the island. As an added bonus, we even had the opportunity to spot some deer!

The beach is stunning, but the snorkeling experience when swimming out to Cinnamon Cay is just average.

If you enjoy the soft sand and clear water of Trunk Beach but prefer a more secluded and less crowded atmosphere, this beach is definitely worth a visit. It offers a similar quality of sand and length, with the added bonus of fewer people. However, it's important to note that the only available bathroom is a portapotty, and there are no food options due to the closed resort. Nevertheless, the snorkeling experience here is quite good.
