Frigate Bay

Tourist attraction

😐 Supposed to be one of the prettiest beaches. We didn't think so. I believe this is because the water is pretty and very calm. We walked there from the Marriott (about 20 mins) However, the local food eateries did not draw us in even though we were told by our taxi driver on the way back to the hotel... People often mention beach, water, chicken,

    Supposed to be one of the prettiest beaches. We didn't think so. I believe this is because the water is pretty and very calm. We walked there from the Marriott (about 20 mins) However, the local food eateries did not draw us in even though we were told by our taxi driver on the way back to the hotel that Cathy's and Boozies were the places to go. No pics because we didn't stay.

    Beach is rocky, and you pay for chairs and umbrellas. If you are with a cruise don't do the excursion just cab it and shop each bar for chairs and beer. I was able to get 3 local beers for $4 compared to the cruise ship recommended bar who wanted 3 for $12!

    Great beach. 10 Minutes taxi ride from cruise port. We paid $24 for return trip for 2. Plenty of beachfront bars serving food and beverage. Check out the shiggady shack.

    Nice calm beach with several local restaurants along the beach. Not much to do…but chilly and sunbathing.

    This side, southwest side, of Frigate Bay is not good for swimming. The beach has too many shells to walk on. There was sudden water level change so too dangerous. It was good that there were not too many people. Beach chairs and umbrella charges were between $15 and $10, 2 chairs and one umbrella. We got off from Princess Cruise, at Port Zante, and used independent taxi, $20 (base rate for 10 min ride) for 4 people, one way to Frigate Bay and will pick us up on scheduled time from same location to take us back for same rate.

    Schöner Strand mit dunkleren feinen Sand und mit reichlich Lokalen. Je weitere man an am str6entlang läuft werden die Preise günstiger.

    It's a sand beach on a Caribbean island, what could be bad? I would put this beach in the middle of the stack because there's not much for snorkeling people to see. Also, the beach bars are not being kept up very well.

    Beach is better on the right side. All places are very welcoming. I'll go back.

  • 3/5 Nurhan San M. 1 year ago on Google • 44 reviews
    Easy parking and access to the beach. Beach itself is pretty regular. Lots of small birds and pelicans which was nice but also lots of bugs/mosquitoes.

    Worst beach I have ever experienced in whole Caribbean. Muddy water and dirty beach. Definitely not what you would expect in your worst expectations. Access to the water is rocky and sea weed is everywhere. Absolute pain and struggle to descend into the sea to swim a bit. Waves were also kinda big.

    Beautiful crystal-clear beach with plenty of delicious food options.

    Wunderschöner Strand, wer früh kommt ist vor den Kreuzfahrt Touristen dort und kann bis zum Mittag die Ruhe genießen. In der Bucht streunen zwei Delphine umher die gerne zu spielen an den Strand kommen. Mit etwas Glück kann man mit ihnen im Wasser tollen.

    Great beach for swimming, snorkeling on the sides with lots of options for any style or price point of bar/restaurants you might want to patronize.

  • 4/5 Theresa B. 1 year ago on Google
    My favorite spot for water exercises. Not too shallow. Not crowded near Buddies (west). Nice beach in general. Food available on The Strip.

    Beautiful views. Wear water shoes, the beach is so hot I got blisters on my feet. And the beach is full of small broken shells. The people at the bar are very rude. Waited 15 min to be waited on and was treated like I was an inconvenience. I ordered food and waited another 15 minutes before I left

    Not a bad beach. Locals were nice and helpful. I asked where the best spot to eat was and a person who works in the beach took me to a place called Oceans beach bar. I went in and the menu looked great. I ordered food for my daughter who was really hungry. It was the jerk chicken lunch with lots of wonderful sides. We paid and waited 20 min for it. 20 minutes later the waitress told us that they are all out of jerk chicken. I asked for my money back and left wry disappointed in their service. I then went to vibe bar to order a jerk chicken dinner which after 25 min of waiting I got the wrong order. I then waited another 15 for the correct order. When I got my food the jerk chicken was simply 4 stripes of chicken breast coated in jerk sauce and the chicken was not even fully cooked properly. I don’t think I’ll come to this beach ever again in my life. And I do not recommend any one come here.
