Sethch Posted November 25, 2012 #1 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Hi all, We are looking for a nice beach in Barbados that has food, umbrella rental (or trees for shade), and snorkeling. There will be 7 of us (2 kids, 3 in our 30's, and two grandparents). I appreciate any advice. Thanks- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadowlander Posted November 29, 2012 #2 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hi all, We are looking for a nice beach in Barbados that has food, umbrella rental (or trees for shade), and snorkeling. There will be 7 of us (2 kids, 3 in our 30's, and two grandparents). I appreciate any advice. Thanks- I went to The Boatyard (Carlise Bay) two weeks ago. The entrance fee is $12 pp which includes a return shuttle ride to the cruise port (shutlte runs every 30 minutes starting at noon or 12:30), a free drink, lounge chair, and umbrella. The beach there was the best of the 6 ports I visited. The water was so clear and the sea is two different shades of blue. There was no shells/rocks when entering the water and no immediate drop in depth. The snad was a beautiful white and tightly packed. There were 2 inflatable water devices in the sea for use. One was to sun bathe on and the other was for climbing and jumping off. There is also a pier that extends into the sea that has a rope swing. Very nice and enjoyable. I did not check into snorkeling at the beach but from reaading other posts on this board it seems you can do that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spammie Posted November 29, 2012 #3 Share Posted November 29, 2012 How much was the taxi to Boatyard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nole0202 Posted December 1, 2012 #4 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Check out Crane Beach on the SE side of the island, approximately 20 minutes from port. Beautiful, pink sands with cliffs on both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick welch Posted December 3, 2012 #5 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Think the best would be Carlisle bay. Plenty of great diving to be had there. Great for best Nick www.beachesofbarbados.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondie1234 Posted January 1, 2013 #6 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Where do you get the shuttle to Carlisle Beach if coming from the cruise ship? Will there be signs advertising it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimodels Posted January 1, 2013 #7 Share Posted January 1, 2013 There will be taxis waiting at the cruise terminal and also outside the south port gates at the traffic circle. Cheers, P:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
