This is a beautiful place to visit. Farley Hill is a National Park in St Peter on the site of Grenade Hall Plantation, established in the 17th Century. I have been here many times. You can simply just come for the day to chill and take in the amazing views of the East Coast. Take along a picnic and chill. There are picnic benches there. ***open 8.30am til 4.30pm tel. 258 3525 ***As its about a 45min/1hr drive away (depending on raffic)...Also note that across the road is also the Barbados Wildlife Reserve....so you could plan to do both tourist attractions in one day. Do Farley Hill morning and then go across to the Wildlife Reserve before 2pm to see the animals and especially the Green Monkeys being fed!!!! ***Also note, Farley Hill hosts the famous REGGAE FESTIVAL with amazing artists if you planning to come to Barbados April/May. I too have been to the festival and the show and artists simply amazing and if you here I would definitely recommend you to buy tickets n go and experience!!! :)

Great Food always served fresh and a wide variety. the restaurant is at the beginning of the well known ST LAWRENCE GAP. After dinner here, you can take a lovely stroll passing the beach and checking out the many bars and other restaurants along The Gap.

This is my local beautiful beach!! Only 5mins away by car. There are 2 sides the beach. The long stretch of beach side covered by trees and benches. There., there is also a food van called 'MR DELICIOUS' which sells lovely snacks like fish cakes, fries, burgers, hotdogs and our traditional bajan fish cutters!! Try their peanut punch and homemade delicious rum punch too!!! There's a smaller side to beach on the other side. Have to go down few steps, but the water is much calmer here and ideal for children. The snack van is still reachable by just a few footsteps away.

Another beautiful beach. Another one of my favourites. A lot of the time it's low tide here and you can walk out far. I have snorkelled many times here and seen/swam with the turtles. I have snorkelling equipment to use. Here, you can also rent chairs/umbrellas and there's couple of stalls to get refreshments. Within walking distance, there's a stall on the road that sells Trini Doubles....curry flavoured, chic peas, veg & garnish...wrapped in a dough. Delicious!! Also, a nice short stroll along the beach is a beach bar & restaurant CARIB BEACH BAR (COAST). Good food n drinks.

This in my opinion is one of the most striking beaches in Barbados. It's off the beaten track, so you need transport. ***It's definitely A MUST SEE!! Stunning beach and takes beautiful pictures***. There are no facilities here, toilets etc...and I wouldn't recommend swimming here. Most people don't stay long and sometimes you may be the only people here. There's no shade, so it can be very hot. The view from the clifftop is amazing and once on the beach too. You can drive and park at the top where there is persons selling jewellery and coconut rum . ***please note the steps down to beach are steep.
