want2bcruizin Posted January 15, 2013 #7 Share Posted January 15, 2013 If you google beaches of Barbados there is a beautiful website with a map and videos of all the beaches in Barbados. You can pick one out for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karysa Posted January 16, 2013 Author #9 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Thanks for the website and link. That's a great resource but beaches can change due to storms and construction. Someone must have an answer or at least an opinion as to which beach or beaches on the South or West of the island have the most Palm Trees.

bee-ess Posted January 17, 2013 #10 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Our fav beach is Bottom Bay, but that it is on the South/East - it has palm trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karysa Posted January 17, 2013 Author #11 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Our fav beach is Bottom Bay, but that it is on the South/East - it has palm trees. Looks beautiful. :). Is it good for swimming or is it often too rough for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvthe-c Posted January 20, 2013 #12 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I like the map and the beach video site, but where does the ship dock? Is the Boatyard at Crane's Beach? What beaches can you walk to from the port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimodels Posted January 20, 2013 #13 Share Posted January 20, 2013 The ships dock at Bridgetown, which is just north of Carlisle Bay. If you're looking at: http://www.beachesofbarbados.com/ then B'Town is just south of Brandons. Brownes Beach is at the south end of Carlisle Bay. Typically, east coast beaches are not good for swimming - the water is too rough. If you're looking for a nice beach where you can go swimming, and something not too far from port, I'd recommend anything between Miami Beach and Mullins. If you want something you can walk to, then try Carlisle Bay. The Boatyard and Lobster Alive are at the north end, close to port. A little further south is Harbour Lights, and at the very south end of Carlisle Bay is the Hilton. As for which beach has the most palm trees, I'm not really sure. I guess that's like asking which lake in Minnesota has the most trees along it... My advice would be to pick a few beaches you might be interested in and do a Google Image search to see what interests you... Whatever beach you decide to go to, you won't be disappointed. They are ALL beautiful and unique in their own way. The best thing about Barbados is the people, but the beaches come a close second... :) Cheers, P:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have never been to the southern part of the island so after seeing pictures of Carlisle Bay and the Hilton we think that we will look in to a daypass there. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimodels Posted January 21, 2013 #17 Share Posted January 21, 2013 You will not be disappointed with Carlisle Bay, it's beautiful... Yes, the Hilton does offer day passes, but I can't remember the price. I know there are a couple of threads here about it. Check out this site: http://barbadosdaypass.com/ or see if there's anything on the Hilton's website: http://hiltonbarbadoshotel.com/ Cheers, P:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
