Simpson Bay Beach or Mullet Beach?

Can anyone please tell me which is the nicer of these beaches and how far each is from the cruise ship?

Are there facilities at each? Chairs, umbrellas?

Thanks!

I like them both for different reasons. I love walking the beach and Simpson Bay is fantastic for this as it is long and most of it is not busy. Simpson Bay also has Karakter Beach Bar which has delicious food served on china plates.

Mullet Bay is the prettier of the two and its about 20 minutes from the pier where Mullet is about 30 but you need to give more time to get back in the afternoon due to traffic congestions and the bridge.

Neither have the best washroom facilities but since Mullet just has a port-o-potty, Karakter or Mary's Boon would come out ahead in that department. Mullet is busier as it gets excursions stopping there and the locals also love this beach. Karakter can also be busy but Mary's Boon is not usually crowded.

Obviously this needs correcting.:eek:Mullet is 30 minutes from the Pier and Simpson Bay Beach is about 20.:)

I just wanted to add, if you are interested in seeing tons of pictures from Mullet, I have a complete review listed in my signature line. :)
