Barbados Holidays
The island paradise of Barbados is famed for pristine sandy beaches and friendly locals. One of the Caribbean’s most popular islands, Barbados is naturally charming and sophisticated, alive with possibilities and pulsing to the rhythm of the tropics. The UNESCO-listed capital city of Bridgetown is filled with historic sites. Spend a day on a perfect white-sand beach, before exploring spirited St Lawrence Gap. Bursting with fine dining and nightlife, this is the ideal place to dance the night away.
