LONG BEACH

Bathed with crystal turquoise water, this white sandy beach is positioned on the southeast side of Big Corn Island. This secluded paradise offers the visitors a quiet ambience with some local bars and typical restaurants serving some of the most delicious traditional meals of the island like “Run Down”, a local soup made with fresh sea food, coconut, plantains, cassavas, sweet and potatoes.

Long Beach or “Long Bay”, as it is also known, is surrounded by some neighborhoods, whose friendly people are willing to share their culture through music and food. Walking away from Long Beach and around the island visitors can get the real feeling of life in the Caribbean communities. Children playing or walking to school, women cooking the traditional coconut bread in their homes, Creole English spoken on the streets, fishing boats, reggae music, and the laid back atmosphere are some of the things that will immerse you in this tropical paradise.

Some unique features of Long Beach include:

  • Due to the small size of the Island, thirteen square kilometers, Long Beach offers great opportunities to start exploring the marvelous underwater world of Big Corn.

  • The island also offers some fantastic views from “Quinn Hill”, a small elevation reachable from Long Beach.

  • The blue waters provide a great place for anglers to catch southern stingrays, green morays, yellow fairy bass, let fish, sailfish, marlins, tunas, dolphins and other great big game.
