"Take a Stroll to Nowhere in Barbados Too often us intrepid experiential travelers can get caught up in the whole effort of trying to do it all. "I must explore this off-the-map place!" "I have to try this exotic dish!" It's easy to forget that sometimes the best way to get to know a place is to simply stroll aimlessly. Luckily, Barbados makes it an attractive prospect."

Beautiful beach. It's not the best to get into a the rocks are sharp and can cut your feet. There are strong waves to knock you over, and lots of sea moss and weeds. I did enter though and the temp was nice, but I cut my foot so enter at your own caution. Best to just walk along the shore and let the waves touch you.

This beach is absolutely gorgeous and the approach to it is amazing. Essentially, you can see the coastline when you’re driving down, but be careful because the road is really tiny and there are large buses and big cars trying to squeeze in from both sides on what’s essentially a single lane. The beach itself is more for surfing and maybe a coastal hike, but there isn’t quite enough space for lounging. There is a park near Dina’s bar with some benches where you can lounge and eat if you want!

Came here on a weekday around midday. It is a lovely beach a little different from the others on the island. This beach is more rocky, and has rougher waves. If swimming or surfing please take caution and heed all warnings. It's truly a beautiful sight and very calming to watch the waves and listen to the ocean. There are areas to sit on the grass or benches as the shore is rocky in most places. Definitely worth the drive up here though. Would visit again.

Some good beaches to view here as part of a tour, but not worth a trip to see this alone.

We didn't go swimming as it looked quite rough, but the beach and whole stretch of coast is very beautiful. If you want to grab a bite to eat at one of the spots nearby you will likely need a reservation. We tried walking to a few on Sunday afternoon and were out of luck.

Gorgeous beach for views. Would not advise swimming.

Beautiful place to watch the sunrise. There's a good amount of rock formations both ways to take a look at. Consider wearing water shoes to be able to traverse some coral around where rocks jut out into the water.
