Barbados Holidays 2011 / 2012:
As well as 'limin' (chilling out) on your Barbados package holiday, you will have to find the time to fit in some 'wining' (no, not the drink - it's Bajan dancing), plus there's lots to see on this pretty coral island. To really understand Barbados, you must take to the waters - a catamaran tour gives you a totally different perspective, while snorkelling fans will enjoy spectacular underwater scenery. There's also plenty of happening nightlife on the south coast for those keen to party, although families and couples seeking a more sedate holiday will find the peace and tranquility they're after in the west!
The trouble with a Barbados package holiday is that you will probably find everything you need right there in your resort. But it’s worth putting down the rum punch and visiting some nearby towns and villages to soak up the local flavour - even if you choose a Barbados all inclusive holiday, where most watersports, meals, drinks and evening entertainment are included. Travel to Barbados’ less developed east coast for some spectacular rugged scenery and some wicked Atlantic surf.
Feeling lively? The south of the island has buzzing nightlife, with a multitude of restaurants, bars and entertainment options. The west coast boasts the island’s classic white sand beaches framed by tropical fronds. Watching a game of cricket – be it Test visitors at the Kensington Oval in the capital city Bridgetown, or a local village game on a rough patch of grass – is always a delight. And wherever you go, the warmth of the local people is bound to be an abiding memory for years to come.
So, if you're looking for a Barbados package holiday, you've come to the right place! Read on to find out more about holidays to Barbados 2011 / 2012
