Description

Surrounded by miles of magnificent white sand beaches, protected by coral reefs and brushed by the constant breeze of the trade winds, Barbados is a swimmer's paradise. The west coast beaches are calm and lapped by the Caribbean. The south coast has small to medium waves that are great for windsurfing and boogie boarding, while the southeast coast has big waves and is only suitable for strong swimmers. Because of its location, tropical storms and hurricanes common to other Caribbean islands generally miss Barbados. As a coral island, Barbados is home to a vast array of caves and underground lakes, which provide some of the purest drinking water in the world. The island is also home to rainforests, marshes and mangrove swamps, along with pastures and sugarcane fields. It has a diverse and interesting landscape, making it a fascinating place to explore. Attractions on the East Coast include Bathsheba and the Bathsheba Pools, the Soup Bowl, a top destination for surfers, the beautiful Andromeda Gardens and Turner's Hall Woods Nature Reserve. Mount Hillaby, the highest point on the island, is here. All of the detailed information you need is here about the hotels, restaurants, shopping, sightseeing.
