Closest beach to Havensight??

[De Colores]

We will be doing a 9am zodiac tour that should take us about 21/2 hours, if we got back to port early enough what would be the closest, most cost effective beach to visit for a few hours...thank you

Emerald Beach. Taxi should be $6 pp each way. No charge for beach. Chairs, food, drinks available for fees.

You can also check out Morningstar Beach, which is also pretty close to Havensight.

Morningstar is actually much closer and ffaster (no ride through the city) and the same situation - free beach or you can rent chairs

I agree. Morningstar is close and fast from/to Havensight.

Second closest is Bolongo... Lindbergh Bay (where Emerald Beach Hotel is) is pretty far away from Havensight.

I googled the distance between Havensight and Morningstar and Havensight and Emerald Beach. Morningstar supposedly 5 minutes, Emerald supposedly 10. I never pay attention to how long it takes to get to either, but they seem similar in time to me.

 

Both beaches are closer than Magens and Coki which are often included on many tours.

 

 

The water at Emerald is usually calmer than the water at Morningstar, so imo Emerald is a better choice because it's more predictable. Check the reviews for both beaches.
