Magnificent West Coast Beaches Heywoods Located in the North-Eastern parish of St.Peter, near to the town of Speightstown, is this wide, quiet beach. Here you will find a large open area ideal for swimming, and smaller rock-enclosed pools that are perfect for children to wade in. As with most beaches along the west coast, the waters here are very calm. The shallow reefs are good for snorkeling, and other watersports are available nearby.Around the corner the beach narrows considerably but there are still small pools in which you can take a dip! Brownes Beach Brownes Beach is one of the largest of Barbados' beaches, stretching from Bay Street in the north to Needham's Point in the south. Located just on the outskirts of the capital city Bridgetown, the waters here are quite calm and so are ideal for swimming and sea bathing. A lifeguard is on duty at the beach. The white sandy beach is the perfect place to catch the rays of the sun. There is not much shade at the beach so be sure to bring your sunscreen if you wish to avoid a tan. No beach chairs are available for rent so also carry along a towel or two. Gibbes Beach Welcome to Gibbes beach, one of the most tranquil beaches on the island.
