Things to Do  

The Beach

The Beach, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This is a quiet beach with fantastic blue waters and some nice waves. It looks like a swimming pool! I never saw more than about a dozen people here which is amazing. The beach is blocked off at the western end by a hotel so the limited access probably keeps the numbers...

Restaurants  

Roti Hut: Roti!

Roti Hut: Roti!, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This became my staple while I was in Barbados and it became difficult to walk past without nipping in for a quick roti. It is set back from the road and you'd almost miss it; it doesn't look very upmarket but the roti they do is excellent. Try it if you are in Worthing!Open...

Nightlife  

The Nelson's Arms: Pool, Roti and Folk Serenades

The Nelson's Arms: Pool, Roti and Folk Serenades, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This is a laid-back local bar and seemed to have a diehard core of hardened regulars. Most of the locals were up for a chat and one of the ladies there actually went home to get her guitar to play us a couple of songs. They have a couple of pool tables, serve good food and... 

Absolut Bar: Cricket, Vodka and more Banks please!

Absolut Bar: Cricket, Vodka and more Banks please!, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This place is little more than a hut with a nice paint job, but it suited our puposes quite nicely. I came here in a group as part of pub crawl of highway 7; the last pub before this is quite a way back and the cold beer was welcome ;-)There were only two guys in the bar... 

Gabriel's Bar: Great Local Bar

Gabriel's Bar: Great Local Bar, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This was one of my favourite bars in Barbados. We stopped here midway through a pub crawl and this was the only bar we stopped at on the way back. It's a quiet pub and fairly small but they do have an outdoor balcony also. The bar staff are friendly and genuine folks, keen... 

Players Sports Bar: Sports Watching

Players Sports Bar: Sports Watching, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This is a great bar to watch sports. Unlike other bars in the area, they don't charge admission and secondly, the place is fully air-conditioned. A good spot to enjoy a cool beer. No noisy slot machines either. Beers here are slightly more expensive than neighbouring bars... 

Mojo: Big Roadside Pub

Mojo: Big Roadside Pub, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This place looked like a big old pub in an Australian country town. This is the first pub on the Worthing strip if you are coming from the city. There was a fair mix of locals and visitors, although because of the size of the place, it also attracts larger groups of... 

Lucky Horseshoe: Steak, Slots, Sports

Lucky Horseshoe: Steak, Slots, Sports, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  This bar is well-known around Barbados. There is a steakhouse restaurant at the front and inside there are slot machines and several screens where you can watch sports. They actually have a schedule of what sports are on the big screen on their website (below). One thing I...

The Coast

The Coast, Worthing

 Hewer Says:  Worthing's coastline isn't particularly long at only 2 km. There is some beautiful scenery though, whether it be along the beach or by the waterside properties heading towards Bridgetown. Every part of it is worth a second look. This photo was taken from my bathroom window...
