Long Beach is located at one of the most south-easterly points of the island. The stunning scenery is well worth a visit.
There is a beautiful and picturesque point overlooking the cliff, below is a 2-mile stretch of sand, with turquoise sea. You need to climb down the stairs to get to the beach, so you need to be quite able bodied to reach this beach. It is also quite isolated so we recommend that you go in a group for safety reasons.
Things to Do
It is ideal for a sunset walk, beach party, group picnic or even great for a wedding! Due to the cooling breezes it is a very enjoyable spot with plenty of beach to explore. Conditions here are ideal for kite surfing. The sea here can be rough; although it is safe for strong swimmers but beware there is no lifeguard on duty.
Long Beach Club is a private hotel with a bar, restaurant and swimming pool, Please check with reception as to the use of the facilities, depending on time of the year, they are usually happy to let visitors use the facilities.
The beach has no amenities and for toilets, food and drinks you would have to go to Long Beach Club located at the north end of the beach.
