Blue Pearl Bay

Blue Pearl Bay sits on the north-western side of Hayman Island, tucked away about 45 minutes' walk from the main resort area — so drop anchor here and you'll likely have it pretty much to yourself. What makes it genuinely strange and beautiful is the beach itself: it's made entirely of bleached white coral fragments, like walking through a natural coral graveyard. Snorkelling the surrounding waters is the main draw, with the reef close in and the water clarity living up to the name.
