Surfer's Point - Barbados surf guide
Surf: Surfers Point can be a fun left set-up with cruisey shoulders bending into the bay and providing a bit of protection from the nor'easters. There are some rights too, with the emphasis on fun, easy rides, making it the ideal home for Zed’s surf hire/school.
Environment: Breaks over a dead coral platform that is fairly benign.
Surf: General: Surfer's Point, located on the Southeast coast of Barbados in Inch Marlow, is a great beginner wave offering soft, crumbly lefts that trickle down into the bay. There are a few against-the-grain rights to be had, as well. The break is semi-protected from the typical tradewinds, so conditions will be a bit cleaner than at that windward breaks. Easy access.
