Barbados is the epitome of island lavishness when it comes to beaches. From the docile west to the temperamental east coast, the island has a bit of everything for beach lovers.

Each of the island’s coasts has its own personality. The most popular with sunseekers is undoubtedly the west coast, whose beaches are best known for their upscale environs and calming allure, while the south-east and most easterly shores are a surfer’s dream.

The south westerly beaches like that at Dover are home to soft, glowing white sands that are the perfect backdrop for lazy beach days. Fortunately for us, beautiful beachscapes such as these are all we know at Dover Beach, as our beautiful stretch along the coast of St. Lawrence Gap offers the best in beachside therapy right at our doorstep.

Our beach here at Dover Beach offers an open invitation for family frolic, a relaxing dip or a quiet lounge.  But, if a more exhilarating pace is the order of the day, the beach is also abuzz with fun water activities. Learn to surf at one of the island’s certified surf schools or let adrenaline take the wheel with a zip through the water on a jet ski. Our concierge may also arrange a session in beach yoga, a deep-sea fishing expedition, snorkelling, scuba diving or a relaxing catamaran sail along the coast – the possibilities are endless!
