    Amazing place to snorkel. Crystal blue waters with white sandy beaches. We saw sea turtles and sting rays. Definitely one of our faves on the island as it's not as crowded or touristy like some others

    Sapphire is as blue as the stone. It has a beach bar that is alive with music and people. It is amazing! There is a NYE party there that will be amazing!!

    Great way to start the day. Lounge at the beach, order drinks and lunch, and sit in the shade of the trees. Beautiful beach.

    Awesome snorkeling. Don't get too close to shore on the right side of the beach, there's a shallow coral reef they'd like to leave undisturbed.

    Gorgeous beach all around. Apparently can get crowded, though we didn't see many people while staying there.

    Good conch fritters $11. Beach chairs cost $7 a day to rent. Nachos were stale. Snorkel gear for rent at five shop

    Chairs are no longer available to rent if you aren't an owner or guest of the property (e.g. Cruise passengers). Best to head elsewhere.

    Pet unfriendly for boaters. Beach is nice with ducks and iguanas. But I'd never come back.
