Red Frog Beach
A beach on Bastimentos Island named after the strawberry poison dart frog. Rainforest trails, white sand and surf are all on offer.
Red Frog Beach lies on the north shore of Bastimentos Island. In the rainforest behind the beach live bright red strawberry poison dart frogs, which are only about 2 cm long. Do not touch them. The beach is wide, with restaurants, lounge chairs and surfboard rentals. Waves can be large at times, so watch for rip currents when swimming. From Bocas Town, take a water taxi for about 15 minutes to the dock on the island's south side, then walk about 10 minutes through the resort area. Entry requires a fee of about US$5 for access and the dock.
