You need to book the table, ask for a water-front one. And it is best to go at 05:45 PM to enjoy sunset views. It is a bit expensive, but the level is highest in Barbados, same with the famous Tides, Cliff and CinCin on the West Coast.

Sightseeing
The cave itself is not very exciting, there are also few chances to see the whales. But it has an impressive view on the Atlantic with huge waves from a high cliff. It is called North Point. I advise to come there for lunch after visiting St.Nikolas Abbey which is not far.

This is plantator's house with 300 year history. Rum factory and authentic colonial artefacts displayed in the house. Funny Cacatoo parrots in cells. A park to walk. It is not far from North Point, so you could do both. Because it is on the opposite side of the island. About 45 min to drive from Rockley.

Shopping
Here you can see and buy all these atlantic creatures - freshest yellow fin tuna, swordfish , marlin , bill fish , sail fish , mahi mahi , red snapper , flying fish. I recommend to go for thick steaks of swordfish. Marinate it 30 min in lemon+oil+soy sause and grill on the Weber gaz grill at Brownes. Fantastic !

This is the largest shopping mall and a short drive from Brownes. But remember Barbados has high import duties and choice is limited. But you can find most things there.
