Elbow Beach Bermuda

Elbow Beach Bermuda

Elbow Beach is located in Bermuda's Paget Parish between the Elbow Beach Resort and the Coral Beach Club, off the South Road.

The beach has a gentle curve resembling an elbow. As the beach is very close to the city of Hamilton, it’s relatively more crowded and a popular spot for both the tourists and locals.

You will often see people taking a stroll on Elbow beach after finishing the day’s work.

The beach is divided into two parts, private and public. The Elbow Beach Resort owns the private side of the beach, and offers some great facilities to its guests including full bathrooms and changing facilities, and shuttle services to take the guests back to the hotel.

The public side of Elbow beach has basic bathroom facilities. There is a concession that rents out snorkeling gears, sand chairs, chase lounges, beach umbrellas etc. There is a popular restaurant Mickey's Bistro right on the beach run by Elbow Beach hotel. You can plan to take your lunch here or just enjoy a few drinks.

Kayak tours can be arranged at the Elbow beach hotel, and they can even help you organize a great scuba diving adventure as well. We had once rented out an underwater scooter from Bluewater Divers, a diving center that operates out of the resort.

There are coral reefs quite close to the shore of Elbow beach. The reefs act as barriers to the ocean breeze and therefore the water here remains relatively calm, making it just ideal for swimming.

Elbow Beach is a great snorkeling spot as well. The Pollockshields shipwreck is about 100 yards off the shore.

The easiest way of seeing this wreck is to take an escorted snorkel kayak tour or an escorted snorkel motor boat tour from the Elbow Beach store.

A series of small breakers are located within a few feet of the shore and offer an aquarium of marine life. When you’re not swimming, snorkeling, or kayaking here, long walks on Elbow beach in Bermuda can be equally enjoyable.

In the evenings, you will often see locals playing sand volleyball at the beach. They will welcome you to join them and you can play a game or two if you so like.

In summer, close to the beach and at the end of Tribe Road#4, Dinty’s Lunch Wagon serves fast food, cold drinks and snack.

How to reach Elbow beach?

You need to take the Tribe Road #4 which begins at the sharp bend on South Road to reach Elbow beach Bermuda. Bus #2 and #7 take you to the beach. There is some 500 yards of downhill walk required from the bus stop to the beach. Check out Bermuda Beach Map to view the location of Elbow beach.
