Coconut Court Beach

Coconut Court beach is quite large and is safe for swimming in Barbados, there is a shallow reef not too far out, so the water is quite calm. Beach goers can enjoy a beautiful expanse of white, sandy beach and plenty of natural shade from the many palm trees.

 

Things to Do

The Coconut Court hotel facilities are usually available to non-guests including the sun loungers. As with all hotels in Barbados, check with reception before using the facilities as at busy times they may limit the use of these to residents only. Coconut Court hotel has a large restaurant and bar and is usually happy to serve non-residents.

 

Features

Driving Directions

From Bridgetown head along the south coast road towards Oistins, you will see Coconut Court Hotel on your right; the public beach access is just after the end of the hotel.

However, public parking is before you reach the hotel. As you come from Bridgetown, you will pass the Garrison Savannah on your left, home to Barbados’ horse racing.

Shortly after on your right you will see an open parking lot on a slope that leads down to the ocean. You may park in here and walk approximately two minutes down the road to the Coconut Court public access.

 

Please note that Coconut Court Beach Hotel does not rent sun loungers or body boards. Non- residents can usually use the hotel sun loungers free of charge. The Coconut Court Beach bar is open until sunset daily serving ice cold beer, frozen cocktails, light lunch and ice cream.

— Happy hour is from 12-1 pm and 5-6 pm.

— Breakwater creates a lagoon with safe swimming and snorkeling year round.

 

Coconut Court is an environmentally friendly hotel with a particular emphasis on the marine environment.

— 18 patented reef balls placed in the lagoon in 2001 create a haven for small, colorful reef fish.

— Active Hawksbill turtle nesting beach from July ’till November. The Beach is monitored by non-profit organization Earth Watch during the nesting season (count eggs, weigh females, measure the shell etc.)
