Of course, we had to see the race horses swimming! We kept reading that we had to arrive at sunrise to see the horses - NOT TRUE! We arrived around 6:45 and horses were still arriving at 8:00. The horses are beautiful and the grooms / trainers were very friendly.

Loved pebbles Beach, came to see the race Horses being washed in the sea. Thursday and Sundays are the busiest days and Saturdays quieter as they are raced every other Saturday. There is a lady every morning selling tea, coffee and hot chocolate, she's very friendly and welcoming and has loads of information. Highly recommend coming early we arrived around 6am.

It is a very beautiful beach. It is very big and sometimes it can be crowded. You can see The Cruise Terminal, the cruise ships and on the opposite side the Hilton Barbados Resort. There are many possibilities for eating and drinking: Lobster Alive, Jos Beach Bar, Savvy On The Bay, etc

Beautiful beach with clear water and white sand. Worth a visit at 6.00am to see the racehorses take a bath. There's a pop up coffee stand on the beach open at 06.30 also. A must see on your trip to Barbados.

Soft white sand, beautiful blue clean water, hot sun + cold Banks beer, an awesome day in Barbados! Love it, definitely will come again!

Gorgeous beach with crystal waters and white sand. Well worth waking up at 6am to go and check out the race horses bathing.

Great place close to the port, beautiful beach with clear water and white sand. Water is a little bit cold but refreshing.

Loved it there! Funny enough they sell turtle snorkeling trips at the beach - you don’t need that! Just grab your gear & get out there, you’ll see so many turtles

Excellent for snorkeling! There are plenty of turtles in the water if you swim out deep enough. There are also multiple shipwrecks, anchors, and other things of note with lots of fish around!

Such a great location for your day time sea swim and absolutely breathtaking when the sun is setting.

Lovely beachy. Lovely crystal clear water.

Beautiful beach and a great experience to watch horses getting washed in the ocean in the morning (6-7 am).

While we stayed in Barbados we visited some other beaches ⛱️ aswell but this was the best. And we had the chance to see the horses too.

Excellent beach nice clear white sand, people will escort you to your deck chairs and umbrellas. The fish swam in the shallow water as well It was very nice and you can ride jet skis aswell

Calm and warm waters. The soft is super soft. Renting a pair of chairs and umbrella for the day costs a bit like many other places. The water is a light blue and clear. There are food vendors in the parking lot with mostly locals going to them. There are some permanent stalls as well which seem a bit more for tourist but has tasty food. Parking is free but does get busy so can easily be a challenge to get an open spot.

A great beach in Carlisle bay, nice calm waters. We swam the length of the bay from the boatyard to the pier, a good open water swim about 1.2km per lap

Located between 2 hotels, this area is perfect for some relaxation in the sun. I would consider it one of the best beaches on the coast. Definitely worth a visit.

Nice white sand beach. Busy on weekends.

Visit any early morning to see local horses exercise before full day of sun arrives. Very therapeutic and a sight not to be missed! If you arrive after 9am you could miss the opportunity. Talk to the trainers and learn about the horses too.

Good beach to catch sunset, less touristy and more locals while I am there.

One of the best beaches in Barbados, close to Carlisle Bay and Bridgetown. Not a great deal of snorkelling, only a few spots under the Radisson pier with some coral and fish swimming around. Great location to watch the sunset. Plenty of places to get a bite to eat or drink from the local places, Skippers was my favourite restaurant on the beach. Waves can occasionally be large, but typically good for a relaxing swim. However be cautious of the jetskis that scoot round at high speeds.

Get down to Pebbles Beach before 7am every morning to see the racehorses have their morning swim and hydrotherapy. Well worth the early rise. There's tea & coffee available on the beach.

Very quiet and clean beach. They offer umbrellas and charis for rent. Beautiful water, good place for snorkeling.

Beautiful beach with smooth water. Very good for childeren.

absolutely amazing place to visit the horses are well cared for and so well behaved.. beautiful beache clear calm blue water perfect white soft sand. I would definitely recommend this beach to visit best time to get 6.30 am onwards if you want to see the horses. you can swim with them get in the sea with them take pictures overall it was a lovely experience, me and my husband went to this place on our visit to Barbados im so happy we decided to go the place is picture perfect, you can get a little white bus from the street take you there and they take you back to the place you want to be dropped of. they also have change to pay for the bus fair so definitely go and see this amazing place.

The white sand is beautiful. There is no doubt about that. But there are a couple of other problems with Pebbles Beach. There is a foul smell in the air.. probably from the water that comes from the city.. and there are too MANY boats in the area..

This was an unforgettable experience. I will never forget this memory

It's not the best beach in Barbados, there are so many great ones but you may want to go to see the race horses in the morning

Loved it to the core.

Very relaxing and calm. No disturbance and weather was fantastic

Short swim out off the beach to see plenty of turtles

Worth getting up early for
