We came here for a snorkelling trip organised by sandals there is lots to see at the harbour so allow time to wander around, the sea here is amazing for snorkelling trips, I am not a strong swimmer but found the distances easy to manage. The most amazing thing is we were able to swim with wild turtles, really amazing experience. There are some small jellyfish that have mild stings but nothing bad just wear a suitable long sleeve top.

Fun beach with lots of activities

A stunning white sand beach with subtle pinkish hues. Sun umbrellas are available for rent along almost the entire beach, which is essential given the intense sun.
We went in late January/early February; I don't know if it's like that all season, but at that time of year, many boats offer excursions that include a visit to the shipwreck and jet ski tours along the beach. For MSC cruise passengers, if you're not in a hurry, it's a 25-minute walk from the ship to the beach. Along the way, you can visit the National Heroes Square and withdraw cash from an ATM, which will be very useful for renting sun umbrellas. Expect to spend between 100 and 200 Barbadian dollars for a day trip.
Alternatively, taxis are available all day and can take you directly from the beach to and from the town center, but you won't have the opportunity to explore the town itself.

A white, clean beach with shady spots and snorkeling opportunities, as there are interesting shipwrecks here. Carlisle Beach is long and definitely has something for everyone. We went to the Pebbles Beach section, where experienced snorkelers can easily reach a shipwreck from the shore – you can recognize it by the tourist boats around it, which are also on the lookout for turtles, and with luck, you might spot one.
We went there by taxi, which are waiting behind the cruise terminal. The posted fare is $5 per person – but confirm the price beforehand, otherwise you'll be put on a different, more expensive route – card payment isn't accepted. Around 3 p.m., it's rush hour traffic and progress is very slow…
We walked back from Pebbles Beach along the beach towards the cruise terminal. Really beautiful. You just have to cross a bridge a little further on, closer to town; the rest is about 15 minutes.
