Rockley Beach, Sand beach in Bridgetown, Barbados
The white sand beach stretches along a curved coastline with moderate surf and clear waters, perfect for swimming and water activities.
The beach has been a central gathering point since the early days of Barbados tourism in the 1950s, attracting visitors from around the world.
Local vendors sell traditional Bajan fishcakes and Banks Beer from wooden kiosks, while steel pan music fills the air during sunset hours.
The south coast boardwalk connects the beach to Hastings over 3 kilometers, with multiple access points and parking areas along the main road.
A natural rock formation creates a protected pool area at the southern end, forming a safe swimming zone separate from the open ocean waves.
