Playa Kleine Knip (Little Knip Beach):
Just around the corner from Grote Knip, Playa Kenepa Chiki — or Kleine Knip — is its smaller, quieter sister. The narrow cove has soft sand, gentle entry, and clear, calm water that’s easy to wade into. It’s a favorite among locals and travelers who want a more peaceful setting and great snorkeling close to shore.
Photographers love the way the limestone cliffs frame the turquoise water — it feels more intimate than its big sister beach. At golden hour, the rocks reflect a warm glow that turns the cove into a natural amphitheater of light.
Snorkeling & Diving Note: This is one of the best spots for easy snorkeling near shore, with parrotfish and angelfish often seen along the reef edge.
