Pebbles Beach

Pebbles Beach is on the outskirts of Bridgetown on South West Coast of Barbados, in the parish of St. Michael, with Bridgetown Harbour and Carlisle Bay to the north, and Needham's Point Beach and Lighthouse and Drill Hall Beach to the south.

 

In contrast to its name, Pebbles Beach in Barbados is an idyllic Caribbean beach, with gently swaying palm trees, soft white sand and brilliant azure waters. The Barbados Yacht Club is located on Pebbles Beach Yacht, the yacht owners anchoring their vessels in the calm sea at Pebbles Beach in Barbados. Visitors can spend time observing these amazing crafts, swimming, sunbathing or joining in with some of the beach activities on offer, including watersports such as jet skis, catamaran cruises, and glass bottom boat trips.

 

Pebbles Beach is an excellent place for swimming as the sea is calm with no dangerous undertow or currents and no rocky outcroppings. There is a lifeguard on duty, and toilet, shower and changing facilities. If you spend the day there and take a picnic, there are plenty of picnic tables and a playground where the children can carry on having fun.

 

Pebbles Beach in Barbados is one of the beaches serving the Barbados Hilton Hotel along with the adjacent Needham's Point Beach which is also used as the national index beach for turtle-nesting in the Caribbean. To avoid the very real threat of extinction there has been a huge move by conservationists with the Barbados Sea Turtle Project to preserve and protect the turtle 'hatchlings'. Visitors to Barbados are therefore strongly advised not to disturb any turtle eggs or nesting sites they may discover, but everyone is free to enjoy swimming with and observing the adult turtles at numerous locations round Barbados.

 

If you want to combine your beach visit with other sightseeing activities, Pebbles Beach in Barbados is close to George Washington House, Drill Hall, St. Ann's Fort and the Garrison Savannah, with the Barbados Museum just a little further inland.
