It's still Kim Sha beach, the water there is not in good shape.

Scubaman--I assume if they are building a pier, it's so people from boats can land there and go to Roxxy, not so people can just walk out on it. Probably just dinghies and not larger boats though, I guess.
Eliaine--I'm not sure I've EVER been in the water along there. Too many boats out there in the water and there's not much movement in the water there, and too much development right there.

That stretch of beach area was never a swimming beach as far back as our association with the island goes. I mean, people did go in the water because it was there, but over 45 years we’ve always been advised NOT to swim there. There were always boats anchored out there and rumors as to where their holding tanks might or might not be emptied, not to mention in later years the run off from all the different building that took place in thst area. My oldest recollections of going to that beach were always only to catch a dinghy ride to whatever boat trip we were taking from that location.
Respectfully,

Lots of "fluff" on their facebook page and a rather nasty comment directed at the Nature Foundation,
Personally, I would not swim or enter the water in that area. More towards Mary's Boon or Beach Side Villas is another story.
