With an all-year-round tropical climate and relaxed atmosphere, Barbados
is the ideal Caribbean destination for some fun in the sun. Bradt's
Barbados offers extensive coverage of the famous and lesser-known
sights, from the glamorous celebrity-studded Platinum Coast to the wild
and untamed remoteness of the Atlantic east coast. In-depth advice on
accommodation is included, from luxury villas to local guesthouses, and
where and what to eat from gourmet beachside restaurants to Barbados
street food and rum shops. Also covered are details of events that
capture the culture, fun, music, food and drink of Bajan life, such as a
Friday night 'lime' or 'fish-fry' and sports, festivals and the
much-loved Barbados carnival. Whether it's beaches or duty-free shopping
along Broad Street, nightlife or cliff-top hikes, traditional villages
or local rum distilleries, Bradt's Barbados has got it covered.
