Barbados Holidays
Family holidays in Barbados under the Bajan sun
Barbados is one of the smallest Caribbean islands and is merely 21 miles long and only 14 miles wide; the majority of the inhabitants live on the west coast between Speightstown and Oistins.
All inclusive holidays in Barbados
Most Barbados holidays are offered as all inclusive holidays so you can book your holiday and know that everything else has been organised for you.
This popular Caribbean island has two seasons, namely wet and dry, and a good time to take family breaks to Barbados is from December through to April. If you are looking to take last minute breaks at Christmas or for the spring break then this is the perfect destination for family holidays.
During July and August Barbados plays host to one of their largest annual festivals, the Crop Over Festival, a large carnival that takes place through the streets, bars, restaurants and clubs on the island.
‘Must see’ attractions
Barbados is perfect for a romantic getaway and it is also one of the best places to enjoy family holidays. There are many family attractions across the island worth visiting.
The majority of hotels in Barbados offer activities for adults and children from outdoor sports like snorkelling and land activities, including hiking for the more active family.
North of Holetown is the Folkstone Marine and Visitors Park which is a famously protected area of coral reef in Church Point. This area follows a snorkelling trail which regularly takes place around Dottins Reef.
Harrison Caves is a natural wonder of Barbados and should not be missed and there are also regular excursions around the island from a number of local cruise lines. One of the better known beaches on the island is Accra Beach, which is a truly beautiful area of white and powdery sand.
Oughterson House and Zoo Park, close to Bushy Park, is also exceptionally popular for families with younger children.
The Malibu Beach Club and Visitor Centre is a coconut distillery that dates back to 1897 and there is a full factory tour ending in a secluded beach bar area on the white sands of Brighton.
