Many Caribbean islands have beaches, but where Barbados differs is what lies beyond the surf and sand. The choice of luxury properties per square mile in Barbados is among the highest in the Caribbean, so there is definitely something to suit all tastes. Away from the luxury resorts of the west coast and the well-developed south coast, however, is where you'll find what makes the island special for family holidays. Central Barbados has a rolling terrain of limestone hills and amid this lush scenery are fascinating survivors of the colonial past. Vast plantation homes show the wealth of these settlers and face up to the brutality of the slave trade in the engrossing museums on the island, whilst several botanic gardens exploit the beauty possible from the perfect growing conditions. The wild Atlantic-battered east coast is well known by surfers; those looking for action will find wind-surfing, hiking, diving, and more. Barbados offers great travel packages, and you'll have no trouble making it on your own, whether you want the glitz and glamour of a luxury holiday or classic calypso rhythms and world-famous rums.
