Runaway Beach
Runaway Beach Review
An often unoccupied stretch of bone-white sand, this beach is still rebuilding after years of hurricane erosion, with just enough palms left for shelter. Both the water and the scene are relatively calm, and beach restaurants such as Sandhaven and La Bussola offer cool shade and cold beer. Hug the lagoon past the entrance to Siboney Beach Club to get here; the Buccaneer Beach Club is the unofficial demarcation point between Dickenson and Runaway Bays. Amenities : Food and drink. Best for : Snorkeling, swimming, walking.
- Address: Approximately 2 mi (3 km) northwest of St. John's, down main north-coast road from Dickenson Bay
- Location: Antigua
