Arashi Beach
Arashi
A calm bay near the lighthouse on the northwest tip, with fine sand and near-shore reefs good for snorkelling. Locals often come here on weekends.
Arashi Beach lies below the California Lighthouse. Its clear water and small waves, plus the reef flats close to shore where tropical fish gather, make it one of the island's most popular free snorkelling beaches. The beach has free shade shelters (first come, first served), restrooms and a small snack bar, and it is much quieter than Palm Beach. After a swim, you can climb up to the lighthouse for sunset. It is about a 10-minute drive from Palm Beach, or you can take the bus to the last stop.
