IN & UNDA DE SEA! OCEAN ADVENTURES

baTHSHEBA

St. Joseph
This stunning beach certainly is one of the prized gems of the East Coast. Here one can see the Atlantic Ocean in her uninterrupted splendour, amidst breathtaking backdrops of remarkable stone formations, beautiful lush landscape, and pristine waters. Here, the currents are very strong, making this beach a favourite for surfers in Barbados. Here the sand is wonderfully golden, and a careful search could unearth beautiful sea shells. It is certainly one of the most ruggedly beautiful beaches Barbados has to offer, and
is one of the most popular. Surfers are known to frequent what is known as‘ Soup Bowl’ in Bathsheba, and host year round activities there. It’ s a very good beach for picnics and photos so be sure to walk with your camera! While not suitable for swimmers, the formation of quite a few natural pools make it possible for sea lovers to still get wet. Bathsheba is also of historical value to Barbados as it is the site of the old train line, which was operational in the 1800s. Bathsheba certainly has no lack of activity and beauty.
WAVES
Large to very large waves. An ideal place for experienced surfers. Natural protected pools are also formed here, suitable for a shallow soak.
