Starfish Beach

Starfish Beach is a popular beach located on Stocking Island in The Bahamas. It is known for its crystal clear water and tranquil atmosphere. The beach is particularly famous for its starfish population, which can be seen from the surface of the water. However, visitors are urged not to disturb these creatures, as this can lead to their death.

The beach is accessible by boat, and visitors are advised to prepare for a day with limited amenities and food options. It is also recommended to leave the island before sundown due to the presence of pests. Despite these challenges, many visitors find the beauty and tranquility of Starfish Beach worth the trip.

In addition to its natural beauty, Starfish Beach also offers a bar where visitors can enjoy a cold drink. However, the beach is not overly crowded, allowing visitors to relax and enjoy the scenery. A footpath also leads to the Atlantic side of Stocking Island, providing an additional exploration opportunity for visitors.
