Best Things to Do in Barbados
With plenty of golf courses, historic homes and sporting events, Barbados is a good vacation for active travelers. Of course, the island is also proficient in beach-time fun. Avid surfers flock to the Soup Bowl waves near Bathsheba Beach on the east coast, while the novices choose surfing or diving lessons in Bridgetown in the southwest. Shopaholics prefer the duty-free bargains elsewhere, but night owls will enjoy the after-dark activities available in Bridgetown and Oistin Bay.
