The beaches of Warwick Parish include Warwick Long Bay, Jobson’s Cove, Astwood Cove, and Chaplin Bay. Warwick Long Bay is Bermuda’s longest beach at over a half a mile long. It was ranked the 29th beach in the world by CNN in 2013. The beach has public restrooms and beach rental and snack concessions available. Jobson’s Cove is a tiny, secluded beach surrounded by rocky cliffs. It has shallow water for a long way from the shore so is great for swimming and snorkeling. Astwood Cove is also a small, secluded beach and visitors must hike down a steep path in order to reach it. Chaplin Bay is a small beach with a wall of coral that extends above the water and partially divides the beach in two.
