About Bachelors Beach

Bachelor's beach known by the local residents as Boca Tabla . There are no restaurants or drink stands so it would be best if you brought your own. Only access Bachelors Beach when winds are from the West. This is a very quiet beach. Not too great for swimming. The beach is white powdery. It is a wonderful place for learning to windsurf and offers great scuba diving possibilities. But, it is best to dive with an instructor because the current can be tricky at times. The colourful coral that covers the bottom of the sea is a must see. The marine life that live in the area will give you many hours of fun. Directions: Bachelors Beach is on the East coast of the Southern tip of the island. Heading East out of San Nicolas, you'll come to a 'T' in the road with an anchor in the center. Bear right, and then turn left in 300m on a hard-packed dirt road. The beach is straight ahead
