Swim in the tide pools of Annaly Bay

Locum tenens working in the Caribbean can make a splash in the tide pools of Annaly Bay, as these water features are one of region's most interesting natural attractions.

Travelers heading to the tide pools can only get there on a two-mile hike starting near the Renaissance Beach Resort and Spa. Once they have completed their walk, hikers will be rewarded with amazing views and a great place to take a dip in the ocean.

What makes Annaly Bay's tide pools so special is its rough rocky terrain. Large jagged rocks separate the ocean from the pools at low tide. When the water comes in, it pours over the edge of these barriers in powerful cascades. The force of this water has etched the pools even deeper over the years, creating a great place for swimmers as well as marine life.

On a trip to the Annaly Bay tide pools, visitors can stand underneath the waterfalls and allow the gushing water to give them a makeshift massage. They can also strap on a snorkel mask and check out the diverse and colorful critters that populate the bottom of the pools.
