We love this beach! It was a short bus van ride. You can rent two chairs, a table and umbrella from $15 go $20 Barbados, for the entire day. The water is clear and calm, with a long beach for walking or relaxing. There are a couple of lunch and snack vendors on site, in addition to a small restaurant across the street where you can get hot grub. Again, you need local currency for the vendors but I had yummu chicken roti and burgers. No complaints! Our second visit, we didn't see tables for our chairs, and they went out of their way to find them. Amazing what you get if you ask nicely. On Sundays, it's nice to see families enjoying beach picnics and down time.

Amazing beach. We stopped for the day on a cruise and taxied as a group of 16 to the beach. We were able to rent chairs and umbrellas. The water was cool but calm. There were water activities on the beach for a fee (snorkeling, swimming with the turtles, jet skis, chair water ride, etc.). The family enjoyed themselves and we would recommend stopping by.

We all had a cracking day here. Sunbeds x 4 people and umbrella each was 40 dollars. Well worth the money. Had access to toilet and wifi and beach bar. Service excellent. Would visit again.

We were on a cruise so this beach is the nearest to the port to walk to. Takes around thirty minutes. Early in the morning there is plenty of space, and the sea is good to swim in. There are vendors walking up and down but they don't give you a hard time. There are umbrellas and beds at various bars but they just want to sell you a package of beers. Better to steer clear of them if you are only spending a few hours, especially the Boatyard.

Did some research before arriving, as previously had been rather disappointed. Chose Carlisle Bay as it was quite near to the cruise port.Lots of taxis, and a set price of 5$ each way.Taxis wait until they have a full load and we asked to be taken to Brown's beach which is the far end by the Hilton. Absolutely beautiful.Not crowded, and sunbeds not all pushed together.Sea had quite afew waves, people were surfing Sand was just as imagined, so soft.Lunch was a bar just off the beach called Bali Beach Club.Fantastic food and staff, the guy who works behind the bar deserves a medal.Would always want to return.

Lovely bay roughly 30 minutes walk from the port . Sea a lovely temperature. No point in snorkelling at the edges as no fish . All the fish are a bit further out above the ship wreck and would need to be a good swimmer to access . Also know for green turtles in the area .

We came here for a half day relaxation at the beach. And that’s exactly what we got. The only thing was that for me, the boat tours were too near the swimmers. There are bhoys to segregate boats and people but the boats were turning into the bhoys and a bit too close for comfort for me. The Jet Skis were running along the rope barrier also. But the water is brilliant clear clean and the same with the beaches. Well worth the visit

Good clean beach and easy to access from cruise port. It cost $5 each way and picked us up as promised. Toilet facilities and bar area. Cost $20 for 2 beds and brolii with free WiFi and party atmosphere in bar behind

Powder white sands and a warm sea for swimming in, because of this it can get busy and is visited by visitors from cruise ships. I would certainly recommend a visit if you like a beach day. We entered via Harbour Lights where we paid for sunbeds and umbrella. One of the best beaches in Barbados.

This was the most beautiful beach I've ever seen--with the turquoise water and white sand with a pinkish tint, making it so clear to see all the way to the bottom of the ocean floor. We enjoyed spending the afternoon on this beach after taking a sea turtle snorkel tour. After the tour, my husband swam over to the snorkeling area (where it was maybe 20 feet deep), and he saw more sea turtles while he was all by himself, so neat! There were a lot people on the beach since 2 cruise ships were in port for the day, but it wasn't too crowded in my opinion. There is a lot of boat traffic, so you need to be careful in the water. It was a long walk back to the port, about 45 min, so make sure you plan accordingly if you visit from a cruise ship! BEWARE: Because of the white sand, the sun really reflects off of it, so we got badly burned even with sunblock on. We should have reapplied sunblock after our water time!
