Barbados Beaches
West Coast Beaches
The west coast of Barbados is often referred to as the "Platinum Coast" and is renowned for the clear warm waters that lap gently onto golden sands. These beaches feature calm azure waters of the Caribbean Sea that are perfect for swimming and clean coral sands on which to relax and soak up the brilliant Caribbean sunshine.
Beaches: Batts Rock Beach, Brandons Beach, Brownes Beach, Colony Club Beach, Freshwater Bay, Gibbes Beach, Heywoods Beach, Mahogany Bay, Mullins Beach, Needhams Point, Paradise Beach, Paynes Bay Beach, Reeds Bay, Sandy Lane Beach, and Six Men's Bay.
South Coast Beaches
The South Coast of Barbados is a curious mixture of the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. This coast is more lively than the West Coast but calmer than the East or North Coasts. The South coast offers something for everyone - calm swimming, snorkeling over inshore reefs and tidal pools, and at the southernmost tip of the island - windsurfing. You can enjoy exciting water sports such as windsurfing and jet skiis or discover sunken treasures underwater.
Beaches: Bottom Bay, Crane Beach, Dover Beach, Foul Bay, Golden Sands Beach, Maxwell Beach, Miami Beach, Needhams Point, Rockley Beach, Silver Sands Beach, St. Lawrence Bay, Welches Beach, and Worthing Beach.
East Coast Beaches
On the East Coast of Barbados, huge Atlantic waves crash along the shore and these beaches are better suited for walking and sunning. However there are a few good places to splash along this coast - as the waves break over rocks and reefs, small pools are formed close to shore - natural swimming pools!Beaches: Bathsheba, Cattlewash, Bath, Ragged Point, and Tent Bay.
North Coast Beaches
The northern coast of Barbados is known for its panoramic and breathtaking views! Here you will find quiet, private coves and bays... areas of respite from the huge waves that crash onto ragged cliffs - throwing mist and foam into the air!
Beaches: River Bay, Little Bay, Cove Bay, and Animal Flower Cave.
Barbados Nightlife
When the sun goes down in Barbados, the fun continues! Barbados nightlife is extensive and varied, providing entertainment for every taste, including historic dinner shows, romantic cruises, exquisite dining, and nightclubs. Barbados nightclubs (mainly located in St.Lawrence Gap and along Bay Street ) feature live entertainment most nights of the week. Most bands play local music, calypso and reggae, but several R & B bands play top international music with a Caribbean beat!
