The island is only 22kms across so there are plenty of other options to explore further East, West and North. Below are a selection of options along the South Coast
South Point
One of the most consistent spots on the island. Breaks over flat reef and can produce fun lefts.
Surfers Point
A great beginners beach break and longboarders wave. Perfect for kids also.
Freights
Sand bottom left, not the most consistent but can produce some glorious long intermediate waves and photo perfect tropical barrels.
Silver Sands
Consistent fun right reefbreak that can get more interesting as the swell increases.
Brandons
Right and Left reef break , on the less consistent South West side!
Crane Beach
On the Eastern South side. Very consistent beach break that suits all standards.
Long Beach
Long beach can have some really fun waves and is a great go to spot on a daily basis. It can close out and be hard to read at times but always worth a look.

How did you like the accommodation?
We arrived in Barbados for Spring break with our three children -(16,12,11)-there is not enough space to write how much we enjoyed our stay. It is the perfect location and set up for our family. Easy access to the beach, close to activities ...just a tropical paradise. The accommodations are perfect if you want a clean, spacious and quiet surrounding. The Burke family was so gracious to inform and help with surfing lessons, sailing and snorkeling adventures and good spots to eat. We hope to return one day so and will only stay here. Thank you so much!!!

How did you like the accommodation?
A funny name for the property but the owners will explain it to you when you get there. I loved everything about this place. Starting with the location, its perfect. Long Beach is super close to the airport and a short drive to Bridgeport. It is located on a beautiful uncrowded beach with very fun waves. Surf all day and go into town at night. Epic. The accommodations are flawless. The place is brand new with everything you could want including a fully loaded kitchen, laundry, air conditioning, WI-FI, cable, etc.... Lets talk about the owners. I have travelled the world and the Burkes are some of the kindest people I have had the pleasure of meeting. Not only are they nice they know EVERYTHING about the island. They helped with the rental car (and arranged to have someone come out and jump the battery when I left the lights on) Have them draw you a map of how to get somewhere. One of the funniest things I have ever seen. I am going to get mine framed. If you are going to Barbados and want a great place to stay you cant go wrong with "Cheez Don Bread"
How were the surf lessons?
I was traveling with a young professional surfer from Hawaii,we went there for the annual Soup Bowl Pro, Burkie and his boys Josh & Jacob who are also young professionals know this island and the waves better than anyone,there isn't a question that you can ask about Barbados surfing that they can't answer.If you require surf lessons of any level, without any doubt these are the people you need to deal with when in Barbados.

How did you like the accommodation?
This apartment is well located, right on Long Beach which is one of the nicest in Barbados, and uncrowded. If you are a surfer or kitesurfer you will love it because you are right on the spot. We found the aparment very comfortable, quiet and relaxing. It is also nicely decorated, very clean and quite spacious. The owners Alan & Sonia are friendly and helpfull. They have a surf school and they will give you good tips if needed. I would recommend renting a car if you stay there, much easier to get around and explore the island. Would go back any time.
How were the surf lessons?
We were there to kite surf as the location is ideal,but Alan who is a former professional surfer along with his world class surfing kids operate Burkie surf school ,these guys are good and I highly recommend you to try them out,you won't regret it!

How did you like the accommodation?
We had a great time in Barbados! Alan & Sonia Burke were awesome folks to get to know. Their help
in finding things and places was second to none. We can not thank them enough for their hospitality
and superb recommendations on local establishments and attractions. They went out of their way to help
us find whatever we needed. Very clean accommodations!
How were the surf lessons?
We are an elderly couple so therefore chose to just relax and enjoy the scenic beauty of the island,however we watched Alan and his boys Josh & Jacob in operation and they run a top notch Surf school.

How did you like the accommodation?
We stayed at Cheez Don Bread over the Christmas holiday this year and loved every minute of it. The owners are wonderful people who made us feel right at home and they provided a lovely, well equipped guest house for us. The location is great - quiet neighborhood, right on the beach with easy driving distance to the West coast restaurants, shops and beaches and it is very close to the airport. Surf breaks at South point and Freights Bay are within a 5 minute drive if you are interested in surfing, windsurfing or SUP. Their gated house is surrounded by lush, beautiful plants - it is truly a tropical oasis where you feel like you can get away from it all. We love visiting Barbados and have stayed at various hotels before this visit, however, this is by far the best. We'll definitely be staying here again. Thanks Alan and Sonia for your wonderful hospitality!
