Beach overall scores
Half Moon Bay (Turks and Caicos Islands) is located outside the Providenciales settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Iguana island and the correct question is not how to get to Half Moon Bay, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.
User reviews
"The beach offers crystal-clear waters that shimmer in the sunlight, making it a sight to behold. However, it is important to note that iguanas inhabit the area and it is strongly advised not to feed them. The pristine sandy beach is immaculate and perfect for lounging, but it may not be everyone's cup of tea."
Nolan Harrington
"Abundant iguanas roamed freely on the sandy shores, while the stunning beaches on either side of the island were a sight to behold. The island had a distinctly cool vibe that added to the overall experience."
