Best beaches on the island

The land of Montserrat proudly bears the marks of what sits at the heart of the island’s nature and history, the mighty Soufrière Hills Volcano, which created Montserrat’s unique and spectacular contrast of green and black, of verdoyant wildlife and dark moonscapes.

As a result, the island boasts a coastline that distinguishes itself from the common idea of a Caribbean beach, providing seaside explorations like no other. From the fascinating dark shades of its volcanic beaches, to its one and only stretch of white sand, the land displays a multitude of dramatic landscapes and rock formations that make for a truly singular experience.

In addition to its impressive backdrops, a day at a Montserratian beach often involves a few wildlife encounters, and a chance to spot nesting birds and turtles, as well as fantastic marine life. The trick is to not forget your snorkel!
