While enjoying Barbados' beautiful beaches, remember to protect the local environment. Take your rubbish with you and avoid touching or disturbing wildlife.

Culinary Delights

Getting Around
Hire cars, taxis, and buses are common ways to explore the island. Always remember to drive on the left side of the road.

Health and Safety
Barbados is generally safe for tourists, but like anywhere, it's important to maintain awareness of your surroundings, especially at night and in isolated areas. The tap water in Barbados is safe to drink, and no specific vaccinations are required.

 

       Barbados: Last but not least

When in Barbados, a visit to Oistins Fish Fry is a must. A unique trick for your visit is to go on a Friday night, when the area buzzes with energy from live music, locals, and tourists alike. Remember, stalls can get busy, so if you prefer a more relaxed experience, earlier in the week might suit you better. Enjoy an array of freshly caught and grilled seafood, a true taste of Barbadian culture.
