Located at the western end of Southampton Parish, West Whale Beach offers a calm, scenic escape with craggy cliffs surrounding a stretch of Bermuda’s classic pink sand.

West Whale Bay Beach’s shallow waters make it a good option for younger kids to splash about in the gentle surf, and during low tide, you can wade out to discover colourful coral reefs teeming with marine life. It is also prized for its shore fishing: bring a rod and reel and you might land bonefish, pompano and great barracuda.
