Turtle Bay is part of the Caneel Bay Resort property and land access is restricted to guests of the hotel, all others must arrive by sea and are asked not to use the hotel facilities.

Trails
Two trails can be accessed from the beach at Turtle Bay, The Turtle Point Trail and the Hawksnest Bay Trail

Snorkeling
There is excellent snorkeling around Hawksnest Point to the east (right) of Turtle Bay, but be very careful of boat traffic in the area. Do not snorkel alone, stay in close to shore and use a dive flag.
