Holidays in Barbados

An introduction to Barbados

Holidays in Barbados take beach beautiful to another level. It's got the powdery white sands, swaying palms and warm waters that are the Caribbean trademark but it's also got a sense of sparkle that some of the other islands lack. Perhaps it's the sound of calypso that fills the air. The disarming generosity of the locals. Or perhaps it's just their insatiable appetite for fun. Whatever it is that makes this island so special, you're guaranteed to be enchanted by your Barbados holiday.

But the beaches are not the only reason to choose holidays in Barbados. The waving fields of sugar cane, fringed by candy-coloured chattal houses, are breathtakingly picturesque. There are cosmopolitan towns with balconied boutiques and modern shopping centres. And of course, there's plenty of delicious Mount Gay rum too. So after a few shots of the hard stuff you'll be doin' Dixie – dancing up a storm – to Bajan roots and rhythms, in no doubt that Barbados holidays are well worth the longhaul flight.
