Barbados Beyond the Beach

 Summer is an off-peak time in Barbados, except for a few weeks surrounding the Sweetest Summer Festival a.k.a Crop Over/Kadooment. In addition to accommodation being cheaper and more available during this period, you can also enjoy many of the island’s attractions on your own schedule.  The only way to really set your own schedule is if you’re getting a rental car. Your tropical getaway will include many trips to the pristine white sand beaches of the west and south coasts of the island but should also bring you into the city of Bridgetown and its UNESCO World Heritage environs or wherever else you want.

From the botanical gardens of the east nestled right above the rugged coastline pounded by the wild Atlantic Ocean to the serene scenes of luxury and glitz on the platinum coast, there are many stops to make in your hired car. Harrison’s Cave and Welchman Hall Gully in the centre of the island offer fantastic unique experiences to last a lifetime. The freedom of a rental car would give you and your travel cohorts access to the little explored northern coast of Barbados. From the Animal Flower Cave to a drop down into Speightstown for a great lunch or fine dining dinner to rival any on the island.

Fire up the GPS in your hired car and hit the open road with an open mind and the keys to enjoying your island adventure!
