Barbuda Pink Sand Beach
Pink Sand Beach, Barbuda
An uninhabited beach on Barbuda's southwest coast, tinted pink by crushed shells and stretching for kilometers with almost no visitors.
The long beaches on Barbuda's west and south coasts contain large amounts of pink crushed shells and coral, which give the sand a pale pink glow in the sun. The southwest stretch is most often called Pink Sand Beach. To the north, it connects with the 17 Mile Beach, which runs for more than ten kilometers. The island has very little development and was still recovering from the 2017 hurricane. There are almost no facilities, so bring drinking water and shade. It is usually combined with a frigatebird sanctuary as a day trip, with local drivers providing transport.
