Love this beach, I've been coming here since i was really young and always a had good day out. Now I'm bringing my kids to play in the waves just like i did. There are a few post about it being dangerous - when the wind is up and coming from the south and the tide is high, the waves can get quite big ( and fun) but because of the shape of the bay, there is not a big drop off. If the older kids stay within the first 4/5 waves and keep feet on the sandy ground they will be ok, younger kids should be supervised with a parent in the water at all times. Each day is different and everyone's risk tolerance is also. When the tide is lower it tends to creat a washing machine effect where wave directions are less predictable. There are life guards on duty, but still watch your kids regardless. Flags mark the most challenging areas. As far as the Sorghum weed is concerned, it does depend on what has been going on with the wind. If you are staying on the west or south coast and the wind has been blowing from the south ( not normal) the following few days at the Crane will be good. In the mornings there is generally less weed because as others have said they do clean it down each morning.

Loved it. The water definitely scares me but the waves and to just watch is crazy! It had amazing view and they have a little cocktail set up when you walk down which is pretty cool! I really enjoyed it and got plenty of photos..

One of the most beautiful beaches of the island, with pink sand. There was a lot of seaweed, however we always had the chance to swim.

Just landed, hopped off the plane and the first thing I did was grab some food (was way too early to check into my Airbnb). After breakfast I still had time to kill, so I ended up here — my first beach after touching down. Honestly, it was kind of breathtaking. The waves had that calming sound that just hits different when you’re fresh off a flight. The backdrop with the hotel behind the beach looked pretty amazing too. I didn’t swim this time, but I walked the trail along the side of the sea and just took it all in. Not a bad way to start the trip. 🌊✈️

We came to catch the sunrise. Perfect view. Beach wasn't suitable for taking a dip but it was ideal for an early morning walk.

Beautiful spot thats not busy. The eastern side of the island is not recommended for swimming but the beach and sand was fun to visit. Chairs available for rent or bring your own.

What a beautiful beach. The water is not quiet, it has a lot of waves. Some are stronger than others. However it is a pleasure to play with those waves. The sunchairs and umbrellas are free and the people are very friendly. You can also get towels if you have a card for it. Always will come back to enjoy this beach again. Highly recommanded.

Our tour guide was taking us around the South/East coast for a day trip and brought us by this historic church. While it wasn’t initially on my list to see, I’m so glad he took us. It was Sunday so we got to pop our head in to see/hear a bit of the service. The grounds are incredibly beautiful. The architecture is grand. Walk through the cemetery in the back. There is a viewpoint by the sundial (also cool) with views of the east coast.

We visited this historic parish church as part of an excursion offered by our cruise. It's located on a hill overlooking the Atlantic ocean and offers great views of the countryside. The stone church was built in 1660s to replace the wooden church of 1640s and has been subsequently being rebuilt due to damage from storms. The gothic architecture of the church is unique to this part of the world. Highly recommended to visit.

I’ve been eagerly waiting to write a review of the beautiful St. John's Parish Church ⛪, a place rich in history and tradition 📜. Situated in the parish of St. John in Barbados 🇧🇧, this lovely Anglican church sits majestically on a hill 🌄, offering breathtaking views of the eastern and northern parts of the island 🌊🏝️. The architecture inside the church is awe-inspiring 😍, with clear influences from the Church of England 🏛️. The reverence of the space is palpable, making it a truly special place for worship and reflection ✨. The grounds are meticulously kept 🌳, adding to the serene and spiritual atmosphere 🙏. St. John's Parish Church is a hallmark of the Anglican tradition in Barbados and is located just across from Codrington College 🎓, the training ground for priests in Barbados and the Caribbean 🌍. This church is truly a gem 💎, steeped in history and significance. If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend joining in a service on Sundays 🌅 to experience the rich Anglican tradition firsthand 🕊️. St. John's Parish Church is not just a place of worship but a piece of Barbados' heritage that everyone should visit 🗺️.

This is a must stop if you’re on this side of the island. This is a Barbados National Trust site, and it definitely is a national treasure of this island. You can even see where one of the recent PMs is buried. Church is in prestigious shape, and it’s free to enter. Leave a few dollars to help keep the site up. You do not want to miss this at all.

I had a chance to visit this church during my visit to Barbados. Beautiful church with some noteworthy tombs behind it. One of the tombs being that of the former prime minister of Barbados. There was a service going on so I was hesitant to go inside to avoid disturbing them; however, the priest that I met outside was very kind and friendly. The church grounds are well maintained. The building itself is beautiful

Awesome location, great history.

We are extremely grateful for the opportunity to visit the Monument, a remarkable historical building in Barbados. Its breathtaking architecture, rich historical significance, and captivating views have left us in awe. We highly recommend it as a must-visit destination. Ok
