About this campspace

Camping Barbados East Coast is a mixed pitch campspace with communal facilities amidst swaying coconut trees and spectacular views of the Atlantic breakers on the secluded windward side of the island.

We are off the beaten path and surrounded by acres of unspoilt natural beauty.

A great base for exploring, bushcraft, hiking, rock climbing, cycling, surfing and if you prefer, just relaxing and watching the day go by.

Our back-to-basics site has a 7 acre coconut tree fringed hayfield with spacious grass pitches and a shaded forest area with a pond and stream with cray fish, tadpoles and frogs. We have fishing nets for little explorers interested in wildlife.

The communal cabin is an old style Bajan traditional chattle house with a bathroom with a hot-water shower, flushing toilet, sink and shaver charging port.
The kitchenette with a sink, fridge freezer, kettle, toaster oven, hotplates, coolers and basic utensils allows guests to prepare basic meals even when the rain decides to fall.

There is an indoor seating area with books, board games and puzzles.
The covered deck is perfect for stringing a hammock, group activities and making new friends.

We have fire pits for chatting around, roasting breadfruit and marshmallows for your evening smores.
You can purchase firewood or collect for free from our forest floor.

The fishing village of Martins Bay (10 minutes’ walk) is perfect for a paddle in shallow waves and catching the local fishermen for the freshest fish and lobsters on the island. The Bay Tavern is open from 12:00 - 19:00 for local dishes and drinks with a sea view. Thursdays is fish fry night and offers a great opportunity to meet with islanders out socialising.

The sparsely populated village has a tiny shop selling snacks and basic essentials, a traditional Bajan rum shop where you'll receive the warmest welcome, affordable cooked food and drinks and usually be challenged to a game of pool.

There isn't a supermarket or cash machine but you can visit Lisa nearby to pick up farm fresh fruit and veg, if you don't feel like the short walk, you can place a telephone order and Lisa will deliver. Most major supermarkets offer next day delivery too!

Perfect for...

Everyone! There is enough space to pitch were you like, be that the secluded shaded forest area or out on the hayfield to enable wi-fi in your tent.forest

A nature enthusiast and seeker of unspoilt places and authentic island experiences.
Born in the UK and an avid lifelong camper, it perplexed me that nobody was offering the experience here in Barbados.
I have been facilitating camping in Barbados since 2015.
I believe every day is a great camping day in Barbados ; )
I am available 24/7 via message or call.
Hope to welcome you soon.
Andrea

Andrea speaks
  • English

Tips

  • Swim with turtles for free at Bath Beach.

  • Play some pool with the friendly locals at the village bar. Pay local prices on food and drinks. Their fish and chips are the best!

  • Lisa supplies fresh local produce at great prices. She's only 5 mins away and will deliver. Most major supermarkets offer next day delivery to camp.

  • The Old Brigand Rum Shop has specials on local beers. Bring them back to camp and have your bottle deposit refunded when you return the empties.

  • The Bay Tavern serve food from 12:00 till 19:00. Don't miss their fish fry on a Thursday night. It's a great place to meet locals and hang out till late!
