Top places to visit

1. Dover Beach

Seven kilometres south along the broad coastline from Bridgetown, Dover Beach has an array of sports on offer that set it apart from any other beach on Barbados. Above the surface, speed over the waves on a jet ski or gently surf over the blue depths on a bodyboard. Dive beneath the surface and marvel at the myriad of coloured tropical fish, which dart in and out of the coral and shipwrecks, as well as other fascinating marine life that will keep you exploring throughout the day.
