Beachcomber Island and it's Beaches







The beaches on Beachcomber Island are AMAZING. Crystal clear, white sand and gorgeous colourful reef. Everyday sadly, the beaches are raked and combed through for broken glass, cigarette butts and other objects because many visitors don't respect the place enough. But this is for your own safety. Fortunatly, many do keep the area clean and you're free to walk around the island. The beach on the main side of the island is flat, usually never any waves, unless a storm is coming. Around the back there is movement, nothing big, but waves from time to time. The island is a simple 15min walk around, or straight through the centre takes about 5 mins. A lot would stay up late enough to watch the sun rise, everyone gathered on the beach for the rising of the sun, a little drunk, but still stunned by the beauty. The beaches are filled with sunbaking men and women, sometimes looking a little sick from the night before, but pushing on through during their day. A lot of tanned...and incredibly sunburnt bodies out for more sun during the day. There's a spot for everyone, the beach in never crowded. Late night swims are in order most evenings too. There are no rules about swimming, you're welcome to go out to the beach anytime you want. Although, probably not best for some due to intoxication. Still, it is amazing, worth a visit for the beaches alone.
