Welches Beach

Welches Beach is on the South Coast of Barbados, in the parish of Christ Church, with Oistins, Miami Beach and South Point Lighthouse to the east and Maxwell Beach and Dover Beach to the west.

 

Welches Beach has undergone a considerable amount of renovation in recent years. What was once a small beach has been transformed into a magnificent expanse of soft white sand that many visitors consider to now be one of Barbados' best beaches.

 

The clear turquoise sea at Welches Beach is very calm, with small to medium waves and with very slight incidences of undertow, so the area is a favourite for those wishing to partake in some recreational swimming. Please be aware that there are no lifeguards on duty at this beach so always exercise caution when swimming in the sea here.

 

Long beaches such as Welches beach are always popular with visitors who enjoy taking long seashore walks, and the surrounding scenery, with its lush vegetation and brilliant hues, is perfect for photographers hoping to capture the essence of Barbados.
