"Barbados..."

Barbados is the most easterly of all the Caribbean islands. With a history based on three
centuries of continuous British rule (1625 - 1966). This pear-shaped island, measures 21 miles by 14 miles with a population of around 255,000 and although relatively small, each coast holds it's own special attraction.
 The sophisticated West Coast is home to some of the best beaches with calm water and clear snorkeling. The South Coast is great for windsurfing and boogie-boarding, but it is renowned for it's lovely atmosphere and nightlife. Heading east the rocky, wave lashed coastline is the least developed, with picturesque headlands and coves. Inland Barbados is quiet and rural, with fields upon fields of sugarcane dotted with old plantation houses. Don't miss the fabolous scenery of the Scotland District named so by the early explorers as it reminded them of home.
