A
kilometer or so north of Andromeda you'll reach a crossroads; the
east coast road continues straight on, a left takes you towards
Hackleton's Cliff, while a right drops you down into Bathsheba.
Picturesque, easy-going and washed by Atlantic breezes, this has
long been a favored resort for Bajans, though surprisingly few
tourists make it up here. Small holiday homes and the odd rum-shop
line the roadside as it runs along beside the sea.
If
the bay here looks familiar, it's because this is one of the most
painted landscapes in Barbados. Also known as the soup bowl, because
of the crashing surf that comes racing in here pretty much all year
round, the area is popular with surfers who stage annual
tournaments.
Unfortunately, the currents mean that it's not a good place
to swim, but the wide brown beach is attractive here and an
old pathway runs north and south if you fancy a walk |
