The shack may be modest, but it's remarkably well-kept. You'll find it sturdy with plenty of seating available including bench seating away from the bar itself. It's all located on Princess Diana Beach, which can be found along the island's southern shore.

Byrons Café
Check out a modest Codrington beach bar

Byrons Café offers stunning drinks and food, but you'll find it situated in a remarkably small building that's smaller in total than a lot of bedrooms are. The drink selection is fairly robust for its size, and despite the small kitchen, the food options here are some of the best local favourites available.
When you visit this bar, you'll find that all the seating is located outside. Some covered seating is available a few steps away from the cafe itself, but the immediate surroundings have bench seating open to the sky. You'll find it on the west side of Codrington by the lagoon.
