Barbados:
The Island that has it All
For an island that’s just 21 miles long and 14 miles wide, Barbados sure has a lot to offer. A stunning coastline with pristine white-sand beaches that turn pink at sunrise. Lush interiors with plantations, gardens, and plenty of wildlife. A cultural heritage remnant of its former time as a British colony, and a plethora of activities from watching a Polo match and taking a rum tour to sailing and snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters, this little island does have it all.
