Cove Bay and Pico Teneriffe

13° 17.1′ N · 59° 35.2′ W

A windswept north-east headland of coconut palms bent by the trades, looking across at the 300-ft limestone pinnacle of Pico Teneriffe.

Practical

Position from Visit Barbados. Uneven coral and rock underfoot; no facilities, no swimming, and not wheelchair accessible. Keep back from the cliff edge (Visit Barbados). The bent trees are a living wind-rose: the trades blow steadily from the north-east.

Best for

Wild cliff-top picnic
