KillaFee Posted January 24, 2007 #1 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Hey guys! I'll be in Barbados on the Serenade in about a week. Anyone been to Paynes Bay? Is it a nice beach? Would you reccomend it? Thanks! Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadie8 Posted January 24, 2007 #2 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Would love to hear about your excursion when you get back. I hope you will post about what you end up doing. Good luck and have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunniebgi Posted January 27, 2007 #3 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I happen to love Paynes Bay.. But I wouldn't recommend that you go to the Blue Monkey Bar to get to the beach. Too Crowded. I would recommend taking a taxi from the port and ask to be dropped off at the Coach House Entrance to the beach. NOT Blue Monkey. (while they do have bathrooms/bar etc.. I just didn't like the feel of the place when I went in back in December.).. Hope you enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beachbum1944 Posted January 27, 2007 #5 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I agree. We went to the Blue Monkee last week and the beach is very nice but overly crowded. I didn't like the fact that the bar pushes their money back to you for change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunniebgi Posted January 28, 2007 #6 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Beachbum could you explain the statement that the bar pushes their money back at you for change. If you are referring to paying in USD and getting BBD back in change, thats the law here actually. Yes ok.. some places will give you USD Back.. but by law if you pay in USD you get BBD Back.. this is Barbados after all. Sorry, but thats the way it is.. and in many countries as well.

I didn't mean to sound snooty. I guess I am just used to going to French side St Martin and spending U.S. dollars and getting back U.S. dollars. No Biggie!!
