We ventured over to the boardwalk this past trip in May. It was a rainy afternoon. We have been to the cliffs, Bloody Bay and the "main" stretch of Long Bay. We had never been by Sandals and thought we would like to see that spot. It was nice, the Red Stripe was cold and we liked the Beach White shop. The cove still felt a little penned in for us so we know that the area around Idle Awhile/Charela Inn is still the place on the beach for us.
