Beaches & Pools


Named for the sunrise and sunset, and dotted with palm trees, our two crescent-shaped beaches are just right for long walks, cool dips and lazy afternoons.

To maintain a peaceful atmosphere, no motorized water sports are allowed in Half Moon bay. Lifeguards are only on duty during certain hours of the day, and red flag warnings must always be observed.

Pools

Half Moon boasts 51 freshwater pools, most of which are assigned to private cottages, suites or villas. There are three main pools available to all guests – the Hibiscus Swim-Up Pool, Oleander Pool, and the Olympic-sized Lap Pool. Both the Hibiscus and Oleander pools are free-form, freshwater pools and the Lap Pool is our Olympic-size swimming pool. Guests are asked to observe all posted pool rules. Three Jacuzzis are located in the Hibiscus Pool area.

Watersports and Beach Activities

Snorkel, sail, dive, wind surf, water ski, kayak and cruise the Caribbean. The choice is yours at Half Moon. Our aquatic experts, Captains Watersports and Dive Centre, provide everything from equipment to certified instructors, as well as offering nearby dive sites that teem with a variety of fish, coral and caverns.
