Lameshur Bay Beach
Lameshur Bay Beach Review
This sea grape-fringed beach is toward the end of a partially paved road on the southeast coast. The reward for your long drive is solitude, good snorkeling, and a chance to spy on some pelicans. The beach has a couple of picnic tables, rusting barbecue grills, and a portable restroom. The ruins of the old plantation are a five-minute walk down the road past the beach. The area has good hiking trails, including a trek (more than a mile) up Bordeaux Mountain before an easy walk to Yawzi Point. Amenities: parking; toilets. Best for: solitude; snorkeling; swimming; walking.
- Address: Off Rte. 107, about 1½ mi (2½ km) from Salt Pond, Lameshur Bay, St. John, 00831
