Charming and sophisticated in equal measure, Barbados has some of the Caribbean’s best beaches and A-list resorts. With its white-sand beaches, luxurious hotels and world-class dining, Barbados has long been a popular escape for those seeking the finer things in life. It’s no wonder that A-listers flock to its platinum shores
 
And if you venture beyond the beach, you’ll discover a host of attractions, from limestone caves and spectacular gardens to submarine tours and championship golf courses. Where else can you swim with turtles, join a cricket match, explore the countryside on a jeep safari, and enjoy tastings at the world’s oldest rum distillery?
 
Top Tourist Destinations:
Bridgetown
Bridgetown is the largest city in Barbados, holding just under 100,00 people. It is also known as ‘The City’ or ‘The Town’ and being the only city in Barbados, it is extremely popular, and a favourite for its sunny temperatures. There are many ports and harbours in Bridgetown and is home to duty-free shopping. The main beach in the city is extremely stunning and is very accessible due to it being on the edge of the city life and the shops.
St Lawrence
St Lawrence is the biggest personality on Barbados’ beach-fringed south coast. It gets its swagger from St Lawrence Gap, a parade of rum shacks, Bajan restaurants, and a reggae-fuelled dancehall where the island comes to party. For those who prefer to relax, the tropical beaches are stunning and exactly what you want from this sun-kissed retreat.
