One week in Barbados

Показать описание

Travel video vlog about our trip to Barbados in April 2019.

Barbados is an island country located in the Lesser Antilles of the West Indies, in the Caribbean region of North America. The island is most known for its amazing beaches, tropical greenery and warm golden sunlight, and its economy is largely driven by tourism.

We stayed in Barbados for one week, from 13 to 20 April 2018. In order to get different experiences on the island, we decided to split our time in Barbados in between two hotels: we stayed for the first 3 nights at the Butterfly Beach Hotel (3 star hotel), and the last 4 nights at the Tamarind Hotel (4 stars).

What we loved the most about Barbados is the fact that the city and the beaches were not overcrowded like other beach destinations on the Caribbean. If you are looking for a place with beautiful beaches, great food and friendly people but not yet packed with tourists, you should definitely consider Barbados for your next holiday. We visited some beaches near our hotel that had hardly any tourists on it (if any).

Another thing to keep in mind is that the best beaches for swimming are located on the west side of the island, which is where we stayed. The East side of the island is very scenic and great for sightseeing , but the sea is very rough so it is not good for swimming.

We rented a car to drive around the whole island, which is something that I highly recommend anyone to do. We found driving on the island to be very easy and safe, and this allowed us to explore different parts of the island, which we would not be able to do without a car.

Public transport is also very easy and we recommend we rook the public van (01:08) multiple times to visit the fish market at night and have dinner in a local restaurant.

1. Butterfly Beach (0:22)
2. Bridgetown (1:12)
3. Carlisle beach (1:23)
