Emerald Bay is a stunning cove with an upscale resort and a classy marina. While most of the stretch of soft, white sand backs onto Sandals Emerald Bay Resort, the beach is open to the public. Relax in this tranquil and uncrowded enclave away from the bustle of city life.
Bring a blanket for a picnic on the sand and enjoy the stunning views of the Caribbean Sea. Sunbathe on a deck chair and cool down with a dip in the water. Use snorkeling gear to check out the range of colorful fish. The beach is bordered by many palm trees, offering shelter from the harsh sun rays.
Consider a stay at Sandals Emerald Bay Resort to use their excellent facilities. Dine on haute cuisine at one of the 11 international restaurants and swim in one of the three pools. Stay overnight in the hotel’s villas or suites.
Hotel guests can use the watersports services. Try sailing on the bright blue surface of the sea. On rainy days, bring your kids to the games room and participate in the karaoke events in the resort.
Make your way north around the rocky promontory at the end of the beach to reach Marina Emerald Bay. Stroll between the swaying palm trees and get a closer look at the impressive yachts docked here. Let your kids frolic in the playground. Snacks, drinks and souvenirs are available for purchase from the various stores.
Practice your swing at the 18-hole championship golf course adjacent to the marina. It offers wonderful views of the varying blue hues of the sea.
Emerald Bay is in the northeastern part of the island of Great Exuma. Fly to Exuma International Airport and drive north for 10 minutes to get here. Visit nearby sights, such as Griffin’s Cay, the Barreterre Dock and the capital city of George Town.
