My family has a home in Foul Bay and I love it there. It is country life in Barbados complete with peace and quiet, constant ocean breezes and a long horseshoe-shaped beach overhung by rocky cliffs and shaded by coconut and many other trees. Often you can see wild monkeys. The sea can be rough but the beauty of this... More

The southern beaches are beautiful! My husband and I enjoyed the fact that with the strong surf, there was no swimming going on, so the beaches were wonderful places to take a quiet stroll, get your feet wet and take amazing pix!! More

This beach is at the south end of the Island. It is somewhat difficult to get to, hence the lack of crowds, but the Sam Lords Castle bus goes near.

Great beach on the southeast coast. Pretty quiet as far as visitors goes. No facilities to speak of , come with your drinks and snacks. Good wave action. More

You cannot really get in the water, too often as the undertow is too strong. It's great for its atmosphere, and nice long walks on the beach More
