The south coast tends to be busier than the west and its beaches are wider. There is a lot for young people to do on the south coast where the sea is a little wavier and surfing is a popular sport. St Lawrence Gap is popular with holidaymakers and there is an abundance of bars and restaurants to enjoy.

EAST COAST

Popular areas to buy property in Barbados

The east coast is far more rugged and less developed than the west and south coasts but the natural coastline is breath taking. It is less accessible to the abundance of amenities available on the west and south coasts but is quieter and more rural with stunning views. Properties do, however, generally cost more to maintain on the east coast because of the salt in the air on that coastline.
