Fodor's Expert Review St. Catherine's Beach

One of the larger north-shore beaches has water deep enough for a serious swim, although part of the beach has been taken over by the guest-only chaise lounges and umbrellas of the newly built St. Regis Bermuda Resort, which overlooks the beach. If and when you get beach-bummed out, head over to the military fort next door, for which this beach is named. A quick tour of the structure will be a welcome break from the strong sun, as there is little shade along the beach. For a romantic evening, enjoy a beautiful alfresco meal at BLT Steak—the dining option at the St. Regis. Amenities: food and drink; parking (free). Best for: snorkeling; sunset; swimming.
