Barbados has over 70 square miles of beaches ranging in hues from pink to purest white, and never overcrowded.
In Barbados there is a beach to suit very mood. The calm waters of the sheltered West Coast are ideal for bathing. Brandons, Batts Rock, Paradise, Sandy Lane, Holetown, Folkstone, Mullins and Heywoods are the popular west coast beaches where you can snorkel, enjoy watersports, swim with the Turtles or just lie in the sun.
Swimming is also a treat on the South Coast beaches of Brownes Beach, Pebbles, Greaves End, Rockley, Dover, Casuarina, Maxwell and Enterprise (Miami). The south eastern coast offers the Silver Sands and Crane Beaches for relaxing as well.
During the Winter (December to April) the increased winds provide excellent conditions for Windsurfing on the Silver Sands Beach.
On the East Coast the pounding Atlantic Ocean is perfect for those who love to surf. Bathsheba (Soup Bowl) is noted for its excellent surfing conditions. Barclays Park and Bath complete the list of the more popular east coast beaches.
Lifeguard stations manned by trained personnel are in place at most of the popular beaches.
Kindly observe the “No Swimming” signs on some parts of the East Coast, where currents are strong and therefore dangerous.
Also please do not swim when the Red flag is flying and don't swim near pipes, rocks, and breakwaters.
All Beaches in Barbados are public. Please note however that topless sunbathing is illegal in Barbados.
Located just 1/2 mile by road from the Bridgetown Port on the west coast of the island, this approximately 1˝ mile long stretch of white sands offers a tranquil place to relax in the sun or calm waters to bathe.
The Weisers Beach Bar on the beach provides lunch, dinner, watersports and volley ball court for patrons.
Approximately 3 miles long and located just a mile from the Bridgetown port this beach has a spot that’s right for you. You can make use of the services provided by the Bayshore Complex, The Boatyard or the Carlisle Bay Centre.
