Located just west of Shelly Bay, Eve’s Pond Nature Reserve is a peaceful 3.4-acre sanctuary adjoining the Railway Trail. The reserve features walking trails that wind through a variety of landscapes, including a rocky coastline with fascinating tide pools, a tranquil inland valley with a brackish pond, and a wooded hillside rich in native vegetation.
The open lawn beside the pond provides the perfect setting for a picnic, birdwatching, or simply relaxing and enjoying the serenity of this beautiful natural space.
Eve’s Pond was purchased by Buy Back Bermuda through a generous private donation in 2008 and work to restore it as a public nature reserve began in 2019. The site of the original pond was heavily wooded with casuarinas and other invasive species. These were removed and the pond was re-excavated, leaving a small islet for nesting birds.
Eve’s Pond Nature Reserve was opened to the public on Earth Day, 22 April, 2022.
