It has acres of rolling green sugar cane fields; a breathtaking coastline of soft sandy beaches lapped by calm turquoise waters of the Caribbean on the west cost; expanses of wild surf crashing onto the wide sandy beaches of the Atlantic east coast; and exotic trees and shrubs such as banyan, mahogany, flamboyant and poinsettia.
There are fine, colonial-style plantation houses and villages of houses brightly painted in classic Caribbean colours, surrounded by gardens of frangipani and hibiscus. Barbados is a paradise island, highly recommended if you have not been to the Caribbean before, or if you want a tropical beach holiday with plenty of sightseeing activities.
