Trying to decide: Accra or Payne's beach?

[enymarsh]

We're planning on going to Harrison's Caves first thing in the morning when we arrive in Barbados, but then we'd like to go to a beach for a couple of hours in the afternoon where my husband can sit on a beautiful quiet beach and I can get in some good snorkeling. We don't care about refreshments, we just would like bathrooms to be available.

 

Are both of these beaches within a 20 minute drive from the pier?

 

If not, is one of these beaches closer to the caves? (maybe we would go directly there from the caves instead of returning to the ship first.)

 

I know that the caves are about a 20 minute drive from the pier, just don't know in which direction...
