Barbados
by Ben Poole
Welcome to the island of diversity, culture and fun!
As well as fabulous beaches, delicious food and stunning scenery, the warm hospitality that awaits all visitors to Barbados has been charming the hearts of holidaymakers for many years, making it one of the highest repeat clientele destinations in the world.
A unique feature of the island is its natural diversity. The east coast faces the brutal Atlantic sea making it superb for surfing, while the south coast shares tides from both the Atlantic and Caribbean Sea offering superb beaches but strong currents. The west coast is home to long narrow stretches of beach accompanied by the calm gentle Caribbean Sea. The interior of the island is made up of sugar cane plantations and natural beauty.
Barbados has a superb range of hotels and self-catering accommodation. The south coast is ideal for those seeking self-catering accommodation due to its good selection of supermarkets, restaurants, and of course the infamous Oistins fish market when each Friday and Saturday night hundreds of locals and visitors flock for the Fish-Fry, an opportunity to enjoy the very best local food - fried and grilled fish, fish cakes, sweet potato, macaroni pie, and so much more.
The west coast is home to some of the best hotels and villas the Caribbean has to offer. Scattered along the west coastline you will also find numerous high quality eating establishments creating a food lover’s heaven.
After visiting the island on 13 separate occasions I can truly say that Barbados is a destination I am passionate about and I look forward to arranging the holiday of your dreams there one day.
