Simpson Bay's lively town beach just west of the bridge, lined with bars and restaurants and a short dinghy ride from both the outer anchorage and the lagoon.

Practical

Sandy beach on the Simpson Bay side near the bridge; listed among the amenities for both the Simpson Bay anchorage and Dutch lagoon. Land the dinghy at a marina or the yacht club rather than on the beach in surf.

A swim and sundowner close to the bridge
