Under the Sea
Shipwrecks like Friars Crag are an excellent place to explore. The sunken vessel has its deep resting spot 55 feet below. There are more ship wreck experiences around Carlisle Bay as well. Expect to get up close and personal with eels, seahorse, and colorful fish.
If you haven’t cooled down enough you can keep yourself underwater at Shark Bank. This spot is teeming with cute sea turtles. At Bell Buoy there is a spectacular dome reef and Dottins shows off marine life like colorful corals and barracudas.
Swimming in the clear blue sea is great but what about swimming through a cave? If that sounds exciting, head to the Animal Flower Cave. This place is a cool spot to relax, swim and enjoy this unique experience. The water is truly crystal clear and certainly a great way to cool off.
On Top of the Sands
Boasting some pretty rad waves are the beaches in the southern and eastern parts of the island. Head to these spots for some epic swells and breaks. One of the best and most popular places on the island is the Soup Bowl. You might think of food when people mention the place, but it’s actually home to some legendary right breaks; some of the best in the world. So grab your board and try out it out, but only if you’re a confident surfer. Sea urchins and shallow reef breaks makes this a spot for surfers who are up for a challenge.
For a chance to just chill under the Barbados sun after all this adventure, there’s Accra Beach. A popular spot, but that’s because of its amazing palm tree lines coasts and turquoise waters. For a more secluded spot with equally amazing sand and sea, Bottom Bay is a good choice. The beaches in Barbados are fantastic for surf, swim, and sun, so choose any and just enjoy this paradise.
