Description

Palm shade and a west-facing sunset are Coconut Palm Beach’s useful tricks. The shoreline is quiet, with enough space to sit under the trees and watch the light drop behind the islands.

Swimming is not the point here. Rocks line much of the water’s edge, the beach falls away steeply, and low tide leaves mud, stones and a rather reduced-looking sea. High tide brings clearer water and a little snorkelling close to shore, provided feet are protected.

Walk south to the end of the beach for the viewpoint. Coconut Palm Beach sits on one side, Beautiful Beach on the other, and the headland supplies the sort of two-for-one coastal view normally reserved for postcards with suspiciously aggressive colour settings.

Go for shade, solitude and sunset, not a carefree dip. The shore has washed-up debris in places, and the rocks make it a poor choice for children charging seawards at full velocity.

Highlights

Insider Tip
Bring reef shoes and time the visit for high tide if you plan to enter the water; the exposed shore changes dramatically once the sea pulls back.
Pros
- Palm trees provide deep natural shade along the shore.
- West-facing position makes it a strong sunset stop.
- Headland viewpoint looks across Coconut Palm Beach and Beautiful Beach.
- High tide allows close-shore snorkelling around the rocks.
Cons
- Rocks, steep sand and muddy low-tide ground make swimming awkward.
- Washed-up debris collects along parts of the shoreline.
- The rocky entry is unsuitable for young children.
