Sheltered in a cove and protected by reefs, Little Dix often has the calmest water of any of the beaches. This long sandy crescent is accessed through Rosewood Little Dix Bay Resort. Don't be bashful--all beaches are public and the resort really does cordially welcome visitors. At the gate house, a friendly security officer will remind you not to use the facilities and direct you to the parking lot.

The site of a former Spanish fortress. Some masonry walls still exist on the hillside, including the ruins of the Powder House (a munitions store). The 36-acre area is also a wildlife sanctuary. Easy access into the park from seashore, but a difficult hiking trail leads to the munitions store.
Reached by a short dirt road. This long sweep of beach, and adjacent Pond Bay, may have a few people or none at all. There is said to be excellent snorkeling—for able swimmers only—along the outer edge of the reef. Others can find things to see around the rocks at each end of the beach. A fabulous Caribbean beach
