- Swim and snorkel with green sea turtles — Spotts is famous for turtles that feed in the shallow seagrass beds right off the sand, so you can often float out and watch them graze at close range. It’s special because the animals are regularly present and used to gentle snorkelers, but remember: no touching, slow movements, and keep your distance so they behave naturally.
- Steep shore-break for bodyboarding and surfing — unlike the mellow, shallow beaches elsewhere on the island, Spotts produces punchy shore breaks and reef-driven waves on windier days. That raw, surfy energy makes it a go-to for bodyboarders and experienced surfers wanting a more adrenaline-packed session without leaving the island.

- Rocky shelf and tide-pool exploring — the beach’s rockier sections expose a varied shelf at low tide, full of little critters and crevices to poke around (carefully). It’s a different micro-world from the usual sand flats—good for close-up snorkeling, macro photos, and finding shells and small reef life.
- Sunset cliff and wave-action views — a low rocky point gives unobstructed western views, so sunsets here feel cinematic: waves slamming the rocks, dramatic silhouettes, and far fewer tourists than the big resort beaches. Great spot for photos, a quiet picnic, or just watching the light change as the surf roars.
- Nighttime turtle nesting and hatchling walks (seasonal) — during nesting season you can sometimes witness turtles coming ashore or hatchlings making their dash to the sea on supervised, regulated walks. It’s a rare, emotional experience—strictly controlled to protect the animals, so join a guided outing and follow the rules if you want to see it.
