Barbados Beach Travel Tips

  • Witness the wild waves on the East Coast, but leave your suit at the hotel—strong currents make swimming difficult.
  • Get wet on the South Coast, where waves cradle swimmers and glide surfers to shore.
  • Cushion your feet in sandy-bottomed waters on the West Coast, where waves are calm and inviting.
  • Seek respite from the sun in the wetlands at Chancery Lane, Inch Marlow, and Graeme Hall. Flowers, fish, and birds nest here in summer and early fall.
