Nylon Pool

Not a beach in the technical sense, the Nylon Pool is a sandbank located miles of the island’s west coast.

This shallow “pool” in the middle of the ocean offers exceptional conditions for swimming and snorkeling. Named by Princess Margaret because the water was as clear as her nylon stockings, the pool is also believed to possess mystical powers.

Among the more popular legends associated with the pool are that swimming in it reverses the effects of aging by 10 years and couples who kiss underwater are blessed with a lifetime of happiness.
