Fricks Point Beach (Turtle bay) during a storm

This is interesting. Someone on the island is misleading tourist. This is not Turtle Bay. Turtle Bay is in South Hampton west of Church Bay. Its tiny. This is actually either Windsor Beach or Howard Bay. We are looking almost due south from mid beach so I can't be sure. I will send you a picture of Turtle Bay if you would like. Its very special. More on that with my pictures.

The picture is placed in the right area. Unfortunatlly i believe that you are confused somehow. All of the pictures of Bermuda which i have taken are placed in the correct areas. Turtle bay is also known as castle point. It is no Winsor Bay, but the beach next to it. :)

Sorry Uki, I'm from Bermuda and Turtle Bay is as gcmello says just west of Church Bay in South Hampton...I believe the beach you are pin pointing there is Howard Bay in Tuckers Town...But I must say a Beautiful Picture it is!

I'm a Bermudian too. My only thought is that this tourist/foreigner was given a nickname. That happens all too often by us "Locals". I live off Stonington Beach in Paget. I go to the REAL Turtle bay beach to get sand for my grandfather who would bottle it and sell it at his store in St. George. There is NO confusion with this Bermudian. I will post map pictures and guides to prove it to the non "Locals" if they would like. But Uki's pictures are beautiful for sure. I love seeing them.

To be honest this beach is hard to identify from this vantage point. This is not my picture so I may be wrong. But, if my Howard beach is your Frick in my picture then that I can prove so easily.
