Parlour is a lesser-known but highly regarded surf spot located on the east coast of Barbados, near the famous Soup Bowl. Known for its powerful reef break, Parlour offers long, fast waves that are perfect for intermediate and advanced surfers. The waves here can get big, especially during the winter months when the Atlantic swells are strongest. The area around Parlour is quiet and unspoiled, providing a more serene surf experience compared to the more crowded spots on the island. The natural beauty of the east coast, combined with the quality of the waves, makes Parlour a must-visit for serious surfers.
