About Barbados

The beautiful coral capped island of Barbados is situated the furthest east of all Caribbean islands. Offering over 3000 hours of sunshine per year, with 70 miles of white powdery sun drenched beaches, this leading destination within the Caribbean allows you to fulfill any tropical fantasy.



Having gained independence from Britain in 1966, it is a prosperous, relaxed and overwhelmingly friendly island. It has absorbed the tourist industry without changing its life and character.
