Hull Bay

A fishing-village bay on the north coast, the island's only surf spot in winter, with laid-back beach bars and few cruise visitors.

Hull Bay lies on the north coast, west of Magens Bay. It is a traditional fishing harbor settled by fishermen of French descent, with small boats parked along the beach. In winter, North Atlantic swells bring waves that make it the island's main surfing spot; the rest of the year the water is calmer and suitable for kayaking. An old beach bar by the sand serves local food and live music on weekends. Facilities are limited and the seabed is rocky, so wear water shoes when swimming.
