About Ffryes Beach
Ffryes Beach is widely considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean. Located on the southwestern coast, it comprises Big Ffryes Beach and Little Ffryes Beach, spanning over one mile of sugar-soft powdery white sand.
The sparkling turquoise waters are crystal clear and really calm, making it perfect for swimming. Distinctive driftwood along the shoreline adds to its photogenic appeal. Views of the volcanic island of Montserrat can be seen on clear days across the water.
Amenities include beach chair and umbrella rentals (~$15 USD), parking, bathrooms, and Dennis Restaurant on the beach. Cocobay Resort is a 10-minute walk away. The deeper water and occasional strong waves add variety for swimmers.
