South Point Light
South Point Light Review
This is the oldest of four lighthouses on Barbados. Assembled on the island in 1852, after being displayed at London's Great Exhibition the previous year, the landmark lighthouse is just east of Miami (Enterprise) Beach and marks the southernmost point of land on Barbados. The 89-foot tower, with its distinguishing red and white horizontal stripes, is closed to the public; but visitors may freely walk about the site, take photos, and enjoy the view.
- Address: South Point, Atlantic Shores, Christ Church
- Location: South Coast
