Horseshoe Bay
Come here for: Bermuda’s famous pink sand
Location: Southampton Parish
How to get here: Horseshoe Bay is along bus route no. 7.
Bermuda’s most famous beach sits on the island’s south coast, in the parish of Southampton. In the summer, Horseshoe Bay is the number one destination for many visitors to Bermuda, drawn by the crescent of pink sand. The shore gets its shade thanks to single-celled organisms called foraminifera, which have red shells that mix with white sand. The abundance of these creatures in Bermuda’s south side creates a blush-colored coastline.
Want to enjoy the scenic sand without the crowds? Come in the winter. Unlike the Caribbean region, Bermuda’s temperatures in the winter months drop to 60s and 70s, giving it a proper off season as snowbirds head for warmer waters. You may see a few joggers and paddleboarders out, but it feels like your own private beach.
