Half Moon Bay
A crescent-shaped small bay at the northern end of West End, where snorkeling along the reef beside the sand is easy. The most popular entry point on the West End.
Half Moon Bay lies at the north end of West End village. The curved small beach is flanked by rocky shores and coral reefs. Within a few dozen meters of the shore you can see parrotfish, sea turtles and eagle rays. The water is calm, making it good for beginners, and a beach bar nearby rents snorkel gear. Entry is free, and evening is a good time to watch the sunset.
