wonderful beach, the weather wasnt even that good when visited but you can see where many of the picture postcard pictures come from on all the travel sites. Most places werent open as it was the end of October, just starting to get ready to open but that didnt matter as Sunset Tropical Beach Bar was open and did us proiud. It's all you need, fantastic staff and good food and drinks. Perfect.

This beach is amazing as is the water - we walked it end to end. Spectacular scenery, friendly locals and great bird watching - especially those diving for fish. Quiet and some interesting boats - had lunch at Gwen’s Restaurant which , another treat.

This is one of the beast beaches I have been at anywhere. Beautiful sand and water. There are several beach bars to enjoy ( Gwen’s, Madeariman, Elodias, Olas). Lounge chairs are available either for free if spending money at a beach bar or rentable for $10 for 2 loungers and an umbrella. Our favorite spot is Madeariman. Great bar, plenty of food options, great staff, and music a few days a week. This is a great beach to spend a day at.

What can I say about Shoal bay beach - Beautiful beautiful exactly how the pictures look on poster or you tube. Please visit and don’t forget to rent chairs from the wonderful kind Ray. Support him as he doing a great job. I will definitely visit again lovely crystal clear water and great weather.

After seeing the capital on Boxing Day, which you don't want to do on a holiday because everything is closed, I had the taxi driver take me to a "beach that has places to eat!" The driver took me to Shoals Bay. What a beautiful place. I have heard about turquoise water, but had never seen it. You really have to experience such an event. The beach was warm, but there was a cooling breeze. I swear, it was a piece of Heaven. At this point, I plan to spend next Christmas at a stunning hotel at Shoal Bay.

This long beach is spectacular, with warm waters in many shades of blue and fine champagne sand. It's ideal for swimming and beach walking. There are easily-accessed bars/restaurants. We especially enjoyed cocktails on outdoor sofas at Madeariman. Chairs are plentiful along the beach but you'll be charged a small fee to use them. We spent an afternoon at Shoal Bay, which was enough time to really enjoy it. To get there we took a taxi from Road Bay. Van taxis are convenient and drivers are great but you need to call. We got a name from our hotel doorman and called his number several times over some days. If he was not able to come he would call another driver for us.

This has to be the most beautiful beach that I ever visited. omg . this beach was so beautiful that we was lost for words. we would just sit on the sand till night and still won't leave. clean , scenic and lots of green water. There are even a place on the corner of the island that you can explore and enjoy the sunsets. This is the place to be. we did not want to leave but I would definitely be back. Thank me later. enjoy

This is hands down one of the best beaches I’ve been to. Gorgeous sand and crystal clear water. You can snorkel right from the beach as there are some coral spots. I saw at least eight types of fish! We had lunch at Gwen’s which was delicious and spent the day lounging. I would highly recommend.

We took a day trip from St. Maarten to Anguilla. When we got there our taxi driver recommended Shoal beach as one of the best. Our beach experience was great. Water was clear, waves were smooth and sand was so white and clean. We rented a beach chair and found a little restaurant on the beach. What a perfect day!

Ray will welcome you. Rented 2 chairs and umbrella for $15 for the Day! The water is crystal clear with some coral reefs where you can snorkel and see some sting ray and tropical angel fish. The restaurant is a little pricey but great food and potent drinks. Had cod fritters, a burger with fries, 2 shoal beach rum teasers for $80. Definitely will return. Best day!
