You’ll be bewitched by Barbados, whether the spell be cast on your only day on the island or on the last day of your post-cruise visit. You’ll also be bemused, not knowing whether you were captured by the powder puff clouds, the picture postcard beaches , seas and skies or was it the action – the never-ending opportunities for sport? Shopping perhaps? The island clothing and accessories, the locally made souvenirs which could have been made from anything from paper or mahogany to glass, grass, seeds or shells? The duty-free savings in clothing, electronics, cosmetics, jewellery, perfume, crystal, china, liquor, cigarettes –all the best brands are also enticing.
You will probably not be totally captivated until you take a sightseeing tour . Then you will discover the secrets of Barbados from the whispering canes, the romantic plantation homes, the military signal stations.
If you came to Barbados on a cruise ship, seeking your ideal longstay destination, you have found it. It would be difficult to find a wider range of accommodation – from cosy guest houses, convenient apartments and intimate small hotels to attractive all-inclusives, prestigious resorts and sophisticated villas. The restaurants in this country are also varied in their fare if not in their high quality. The range stretches from Polynesian to Mexican to Japanese to Chinese to Indian to Italian to French to Greek and, of course, to the best, Bajan cuisine.
A day’s visit to Barbados only scratches the top of the surface. The country is one of incredible depth and will call you like a siren to return. We look forward to welcoming you back!
