Barbados Vacations

Barbados is the easternmost island in the Caribbean, and as such, things are done a little differently on the island.  It is more traditionally Caribbean, lacking fast food chains and "cookie cutter" retail stores. This gives the traveler an opportunity to enjoy the real Caribbean, whether one's idea of vacations in Barbados include relaxation, destination weddings or cultural pursuits.

For those who enjoy learning about heritage, Barbados offers plenty of museums, visitor centers, and historical sites. Churches, plantation homes, and hidden caves give a wide view of the varied lifestyles of this gem of an island. The people of Barbados are proud of their culture and heritage, and enjoy sharing it with visitors.

Clay, wood, bamboo, palm tree leaves, and shells are used in pottery, basket making, wood carving, and jewelry, to name a few.
