The Best of Barbados September 25, 2019

Whether you travel there for the beautiful beaches, wildly-luxurious hotels, warm and friendly Bajan people, or mouthwatering cuisine, you can be guaranteed a good time in Barbados.

Activities to please everyone 



From world-class golf courses to serene spas, and beaches perfect for sunbathing or surfing, you’ll find it easy enough to fill your day with things to do in Barbados.

If you’re travelling with kids, take them on the Atlantis Submarine to discover an enthralling underwater world of fish and coral. Or visit the awe-inspiring Harrison’s Cave for a thrilling tram tour past stalactites, stalagmites, streams and waterfalls. If you’d rather stay above ground, buckle up for the popular Island Safari off-road adventure!

Hotel hotspots



The white sands of the west coast are lined with luxury hotels to please all; whether the intimate adults-only environment of The House by Elegant Hotels ignites your interest, or the luxury apartment-style living of Saint Peter’s Bay Resort & Residences is more your scene, you’re sure to find a Platinum Coast hotel to suit your style.

Down on the lively south coast, there are family-friendly hotels like Sea Breeze Beach House, or romantic enclaves such as Little Arches Boutique Hotel, all located within close proximity to the lively St Lawrence Gap as well as an abundance of beautiful beaches offering watersports of all kinds.

Party with the locals



Whichever day or night of the week it is, you can be sure there’s a party going on somewhere in Barbados! On Friday and Saturday nights, you can enjoy succulent local seafood alongside live music at Oistin’s Fish Fry, while the lively St Lawrence Gap is full of bars, restaurants, shops and nightclubs.

Festivals are a big part of Bajan life too; reggae, Celtic, jazz, food and rum, and the famous Crop Over are just some of the festivals you can enjoy throughout the year.  

Delectable dining



Some of the most esteemed dining spots in the Caribbean can be found on Barbados; one of our favourite Bajan restaurants is Daphne’s. This fine dining establishment is a west-coast institution, with its contemporary Italian dishes and scenic waterfront setting.

The Cliff is another dining highlight; even if it weren't for the mouthwatering cuisine, its location alone is enough to impress, with views that will take your breath away. And within the hotels themselves you'll find restaurants worthy of abundant accolades - visit Cobblers Cove's exquisite restaurant, or Treasure Beach by Elegant Hotel's Tapestry Restaurant which is headed up by award-winning chefs.

Wellness and soft adventure 



2019 is the year of Wellness and Soft Adventure in Barbados. Explore the caves, hiking trails and coral reefs of this beautiful island, relax into spa treatments, go horse riding on the beach, unwind with yoga and Pilates, or let go with an adrenaline-inducing surfing session or microlight flight.
