Top Tips for Barbados!

Consider a rental car – highly recommended if you want to explore the whole island; drive on the left side.

Consider visiting in May, June, November – slightly fewer tourists, great value on hotels and activities.. although there is the occasional rainfall. 

Try flying fish & cou-cou – national dish.
