MAHO BAY BEACH

One of our TOP BEACHES to spot a sea turtle, Maho Bay has a little something for everybody. The beach is located just off North Shore Road; making the trek with chairs and coolers soooo much easier. Towering coconut palms line the beach casting a bit of shade for those looking to retreat from the sun. The water is shallow making for a great beach for kids and families. You’ll also find sea grass beds teaming with rays and turtles and conch – as well as shallow coral outcroppings covered with hard and soft corals, tropical fish and elegant sea fans.
