Bermuda is one of the most magnificent places in the world. Pink sand, bright blue waters, and overall vibe make it perhaps superior to any Caribbean destination.

Bermuda has remained relatively under the radar, given how incredible it is. Perhaps tourists want to avoid the monsters lurking in the Bermuda Triangle, ready to strike. Whatever the reason is, I sure am happy.

But it’s still a small island, and some beaches can certainly get crowded. That’s why you have to learn about the best hidden beaches around the island, of which there are many.

So enough preamble. Let’s dive into six of the best hidden beaches on the beautiful island of Bermuda, giving you an in-depth analysis and tips for each.

Long Bay and Well Bay in Coopers Island

Cooper’s Island includes some of the most stunning beaches on Bermuda.

Imagine long, pearly white sand beaches and crystal clear waters- without all the pesky tourists.

Cooper’s Island is located on the southeastern tip of Bermuda. I haven’t mentioned this yet, but most of the crowds in Bermuda come courtesy of the cruise ships.

They dock on the northwestern tip, so that makes Cooper’s Island a sort of haven from those gargantuan annoyances.

You’ll arrive and park next to an absolutely stunning beach. And it may sound crazy, but don’t stop here. Walk into the park for about five minutes and you’ll reach a beach called Long Bay, which is one of- if not the- most perfect beaches in Bermuda.

From here, you can also walk directly across the island to Well Bay. The island is narrow here, so walking across takes just a couple of minutes. Well Bay is even more secluded, though perhaps not as pretty and perfect as Long Bay.

They are stunning, and a great start to our list of the best hidden beaches in Bermuda.

As a bonus, try and stop on the road by the runway you’ll be passing on the way to/from here to perhaps get a glimpse of a plane landing right over your head! If you come earlier, you’ll have a better shot.

Gibbons Bay

Gibbons Bay is located on the north shore of Bermuda. The north shore, generally speaking, is one of the least frequented parts of the island, and there are several great beaches here.

My favorite of these is Gibbons Bay. It’s truly a hidden beach- they don’t make the entrance very obvious. It’s also a private beach, and they’ve clearly put in the effort to keep out tourists.

To get here, you’ll park on the side of the road- you’ll see the parking lot. Then walk across the road onto the small dirt path under the railway trail. In a minute, the entrance to the beach will be a gate on your left.

Do note that as the beach is private, it is only open on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays as of July 2025. So make sure you go on one of those days. For obvious reasons.

But the beach is stunning. Shallow waters, with a couple of little islands off the shore creating calm waters by the beach. There’s also decent snorkeling out by the islands, primarily the one on the right.

Church Bay

Church Bay is pushing it for a list of ‘the best hidden beaches in Bermuda’.

Why? Because Church Bay is, by most accounts, the best snorkeling beach on the island. And I’d agree with that assessment.

But somehow it remains very quiet– at least when I’ve been there. And with by far the best snorkeling I saw on the island, I felt its inclusion on this list was necessary.

So grab your snorkel and swim out to the two rocks poking up off the shore. The snorkeling around here is incredible- vibrant corals, and so many fish.

If you’re not planning on snorkeling, this beach can be skipped. It’s quite beautiful- but if you’re looking for a leisurely swim, other beaches on this list will suit you better.

Grab a snow cone off the road just before Church Bay, either on the way to or after leaving. If the stand is up, it’ll be obvious.

Best snow cone of your life, trust me.

Admiralty House Park

Admiralty House was recommended to me by multiple locals I had met during my trip. In general, that’s a pretty good sign.

It did not disappoint.

First off, it’s stunning. The cliffs descending into the turquoise waters here are a sight to behold.

Admiralty House Park is also the best spot for cliff jumping on the island. If that’s something you enjoy, this is undoubtedly the place for it. If you’re wondering where to jump from, odds are there will be locals.

So watch them go first, and as long as they resurface alive you’re good to go.

Then there are the caves. Swim along the cliffs, and you’ll find numerous caves for you to explore tucked into the rocks. It’s a unique area that really doesn’t exist elsewhere on the island.

Mangrove Bay

This one’s going to require some exercise.

First off, you’re going to park at the spot on the map below.

Then, you’re going to jump off the pier and swim across the bay. It’s a nice long swim, so be prepared.

If you don’t feel confident swimming for that long, drive around the bay and park by the Cambridge Beaches Resort. I didn’t go, but I’m sure there’s a place to park.

Once you cross (by land or by sea), you’ll reach a really cool area. It’s essentially one massive shallow pool, but with sea and sand and tiny islands with small private beaches. For the most part, it’s shallow enough where you can just wade through the water.

You’ll find a bunch of boats parked on the edge of this area and people exploring the small islands. It’s definitely more of a local spot.

We didn’t look into the boat rentals, but it’s worth taking a look at. It would be an awesome time, that’s for sure.

David’s Cove (near Warwick Long Bay)

And last- but, most certainly not least- is what is undoubtedly one of my favorite spots on the whole island. I’ve named it David’s Cove- has a nice ring to it.

It’s located off of Warwick Long Bay, which isn’t what I would classify as a ‘hidden beach’ but incredible all the same.

You can access it two different ways. One is to go swimming around the rocks on the right end of the Long Bay.

The other is to walk to the back left side of Jobson’s Cove, which is located next to Long Bay (another beautiful, but more popular spot). On the back-left side of Jobson’s, you’ll find an opening that will lead you right there.

David’s Cove features two very small ‘beaches’ with pink sand surrounded by absolutely incredible volcanic rock formations. It’s really incredibly stunning, and nearly always empty.

My favorite spot is the small ‘beach’ on the right-hand side of the photo above. There’s a rock wall forming a natural pool and barrier from the waves. Check it out below.

The only problem with David’s Cove is that much of the beach may disappear during higher tides. So probably come at lower tide.

And there you have it- the best hidden beaches in Bermuda! I know I said there was no particular order, but hopefully my bias shown through a little for that last one ;).

Happy travels! And as a last note: if you want all these hidden spots (and a lot more) combined into an itinerary, read here for my ultimate (and very beach-heavy) three-day Bermuda itinerary!
