Also known as Turtle Beach, Ocho Rios Bay Beach is one of the most popular beaches in the area and one of the first stops for many tourists and cruise passengers. It's really easy to access and has a lot of space for everyone to enjoy without ever feeling too crowded, despite the fact that the beach can get quite busy. The sand slopes gently out into the water, perfect for little ones to wade in. If you want to do some more serious swimming, all you have to do is head further out from the shore. This Ocho Rios beach is also equipped with great facilities like showers and restrooms, and there are plenty of stores and eateries nearby too. Since this beach is a popular spot for cruise tourists, you can simply sit and admire the ships coming in and out too, and time simply flies by when you're relaxing on Ocho Rios Bay Beach.
