Overview

Good to know
Before you go+
The NCC distinguishes vehicular access at Heywoods North from pedestrian access at Heywoods South. Plan your approach for the section you want to visit; an access listing is not a reserved parking space.
Visit Barbados lists lifeguard service but no beach facility. Bring essentials and confirm current coverage; no toilet, shower or accessible-route guarantee is made.
Follow local warnings, beach flags and lifeguard instructions; do not swim under a red flag. Confirm that a lifeguard is actually on duty before relying on coverage.
No staffed-facility timetable was verified. Respect turtle-nesting areas and never touch turtles, nests or hatchlings.
Public-access and facility enquiries: NCC customer service, +1 246 536 0617 or ncc@ncc.gov.bb. This is a general office contact, not an emergency line.
