Spring Bay National Park

Spring Bay National Park, located about half a mile from the Baths, has the same captivating landscape and beautiful beach as the Baths, but often with far fewer people. This beach is especially popular with island residents who don’t want to fight the crowds at the Baths or make the trek down to the beach. The boulders here are a little smaller and less concentrated than at the Baths, but they are still lots of fun to swim around and explore. There are picnic tables and trash cans here, but no bathroom facilities.

Look for signs to Spring Bay just before Guavaberry Spring Bay Apartments on the road to the Baths. Park in the lot, and follow the trail about 20 yards to the beach.

Look for the trail that departs from the right-hand (northern) end of Spring Bay to get to Valley Trunk Bay, an exquisite white sand beach bordered by private homes.
