  • Description : Situated on the shores of Antigua’s scenic northwest coast, Hawsksbill Bay is a romantic, crescent-shaped public beach and the last of a string of four white-sand crescents on the west coast, near the Hawksbill Hotel. One of which is the island's only nude beach and is the most secluded of the four and is known as Eden Beach.

    It is the perfect haven for naturists. Hawksbill Bay gets more sun than all other eastern Caribbean Islands and the cool sea breezes provides the ideal setting. The beach is much larger than you might expect with lots of private nooks. The sand here is not blindingly white, but a light, soft gray. The water is as crystalline as any in the Caribbean.

    The beach is long and clear, with lush greenery behind it and dazzling ocean in front. There’s even an exotic mini-islet within swimming distance from shore. The place is positively picturesque. Plus the secluded coves with shallow waters will offer lots of opportunities for some great adventures.
