Barbados Shore Excursion Surf and Turf
Overview
Are you ready for a fun-filled day exploring Barbados? Your adventure begins at the Barbados Wildlife Reserve, where you’ll watch the playful green monkeys being fed by the reserve staff during their mid-morning snack. Once the monkeys have swung through the trees, we’ll head to Cherry Tree Hill for breathtaking views across the Scotland District.
From there, enjoy a scenic drive along the east coast to Bathsheba, a world-famous surfers’ paradise, before making your way to the calm waters of Carlisle Bay. Here, you’ll have time to relax on the beach before boarding Tranquility Cruises for an 80-minute cruise featuring swimming with sea turtles and snorkeling around a shipwreck.
To finish the day with a splash, take a thrilling ride down Tranquility’s waterslide into the crystal-clear waters of Carlisle Bay. After your cruise, you’ll be comfortably returned to the cruise ship port.

Meeting and Pickup
Your tour will depart from Tour Departure Gate One (1), located within the cruise terminal. Depending on where your cruise ship is docked, you will most likely need to take a shuttle bus from your ship to the cruise terminal. Once you exit the terminal doors, you will arrive at the designated tour gate and bus-loading departure area. Look for the “Beautiful Barbados Tours” sign at Gate One (1). One of the representatives will be there to welcome you and assist with check-in. After checking in, the representative will direct you to your tour guide and tour vehicle. Please arrive at the designated departure location at least ten (10) minutes before your scheduled departure time. This will allow sufficient time for check-in and boarding and help ensure a smooth and timely departure.
