Fodor's Expert Review Deep Water Bay

Just east of Ocean Park is this lovely beach that's often overlooked by tourists, though weekends can get a bit more crowded. It's a good place to have a barbecue or swim under the watchful eye of a lifeguard. Leafy trees provide ample shade, and there's a great view of the Ocean Park cable car. To get here, take Bus 6, 6A, or 260 from Exchange Square Bus Terminus in Central. Amenities: food and drink; lifeguards; parking (fee); showers; toilets; water sports. Best for: swimming; sunset; walking.
