Cycling day trip from Bridgetown to Crane

Get ready for a scenic spin across the southern coast of Barbados! This route kicks off in Bridgetown, the vibrant capital known for its colonial architecture, bustling markets, and waterfront views. From the heart of the city, you’ll head east along mostly quiet roads, winding through local neighborhoods and lush countryside. Expect a rolling ride—there’s about 255 meters of gentle climbing, but nothing too intense.

You’ll enjoy long stretches of smooth asphalt, sprinkled with areas where the road type is less certain, so keep your eyes peeled for an occasional rough patch. Most of the journey is peaceful, with only a short stint on busier roads. After about 30 km, you’ll arrive at The Crane, home to one of the island’s most famous beaches. With stunning cliffs and turquoise surf, it’s the perfect spot to cool off and relax after your ride. Don’t forget to snap a photo from the lookout!
