Barbados Holidays

From the bright white expanses of soft, sugary sand on the west coast to the south coast's rugged, surf-friendly shores, the glorious beaches of Barbados do not disappoint! And the beach bars are pretty famous as well! Don’t forget to enjoy a rum punch with a good book while looking out over the crystal clear, turquoise waters. The main resorts in the west of the island have beautiful golden sandy bays to enjoy.

The Caribbean is one of the most amazing places to scuba dive and snorkel and many boat tours also take you to sites where you can swim with turtles in the wild. Not a fan of diving? Don’t like sea water? Not to worry, Barbados has submarine tours that allow you to view tropical fish, corals and shipwrecks without getting wet! Enjoy the experience either by day or night, with the romantic night-time submarine trip focusing on the stunning colours of the corals and lesser spotted tropical fish, followed by a drinks reception afterwards.

Barbados is famous for its fine dining and lively party atmosphere and is often frequented with sun-loving celebrities. For fancy dinners and amazing sunsets check out Champers, Tides or The Cliff for that special occasion. If you’re looking for a lively night out, put on your dancing shoes ann head down to the St Lawrence Gap area where you’ll find a safe, pedestrian area full of quality restaurants, bars and music.

Cricket is the national sport of Barbados and if you're travelling during the season, make your way to the world-famous Kensington Oval. Catch international test matches, one-day internationals or local first division matches and you’re sure to enjoy the lively atmosphere and be swept along by the national love for the game. Many famous West-Indies players hail from Barbados so take time to visit the neighbouring Legends of Barbados Cricket Museum.
