more Barbados things to do
 

Drill Hall beach is one of the most diverse in Barbados. Here you'll find a variety of sea conditions with something for everyone!

Young children will enjoy wading in the calm waters and exploring the natural ocean pools which are teeming with marine life.

Older kids can join in the surfing lessons that take place nearly daily at the beach. The gentle waves make this the perfect surfing spot for beginners.

The open water (at the eastern end) is calm enough for swimming.

Drill Hall beach is a favourite nesting site for sea turtles. If you're lucky, you'll spot some emerging from the sand and making their way down to the sea.

The name of the beach is derived from the nearby military buildings where drills were held. These historic buildings are now the headquarters of the Barbados Defence Force.
