Barbados was one of our port of call during our cruise trip. My husband, and two kids (ages 7 & 4), plus 4 of our family members took a taxi from the cruise port to The Boatyard. We paid $4 each for a one way ride, and during our drive the taxi driver kept saying that the Boatyard is full... more

All we wanted was to find a white sandy beach with turquoise waters. Our adult group wanted someplace to just relax and play in the surf. When we came off the cruise ship, the taxi driver was very arrogant and rude but said she would show us the best beach. She took us north along the coast, we said we... more

My husband and I recently spent some time at the Boatyard during one of our cruise days. We had read many reviews on Trip Advisor and thought it might be nice to visit the Boatyard for part of our day in Bridgetown. We had an excursion to visit the island for half of the day and when the excursion was... more

My family and I visited the Boatyard during a port visit in Barbados. We paid $5.00 pp from the cruise terminal and arrived about 10:30 am and there were only a handful of people on the beach. Prices are $15 pp US and include a lounger, free drink (their rum punch is fantastic!) and use of the iceburg, water trampoline... more

We walked down from the cruise terminal (about 1.5 miles) and the place was easy to find. There are some changes from what I read when I researched this island earlier. The entry fee is now $15.00US and with... more

My cruise ship ms amsterdam of holland america stopped at the boatyard on dec 17th. The crown princess was also docked at the same time. We had the best time. They have bikini contests and drinking games. It was alot of fun. It was the only excursion geared to a younger crowd. I would absolutley recommend this stop more

We went here while docked on the Carnival Destiny. The people in Barbados in general are wonderful and the Boat Yard was the best place we could've gone. It was better than any excursion. You pay a low fee to get in and get so much for your buck. You get a beach chair, a drink, use of the facilities... more

Went to the Boatyard while sailing on the Crown Princess in March. The shuttle was $4 per person usd one way. The Boatyard costs $15 USD and for that price you get a chair, use of the showers, bathrooms and the bar with restaurant. It is a really nice beach. The day we were there was cloudy and windy but... more
