subject: Exploring the beautiful Caribbean island of Barbados [print this page] Author: Frankie Jones Author: Frankie Jones
The Caribbean is known for its golden beaches and is certainly the main attraction for going on a holiday there. There are many islands to choose from however Barbados is the one that comes to most people's mind when you mention the Caribbean. There is 70 square miles of beach to enjoy along a 21 mile stretch so it's never far to venture to get to the seaside. If it is beach you are after (there are many other things to do in Barbados or on the other islands) then it is all at your disposal. For such a luxury place there are NO private beaches, every metre is available to the public despite hotels placing themselves right next to the beach in order to give that perception. Therefore you can swim or sunbathe on any place you see fit. With the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea both surrounding Barbados you have the choice of the calmer clear blue seas and white sands that are found featured on the typical postcards or if you want a more adrenaline filled adventure head to the east of the island where the crashing waves are filled with surfers. However you came to the island, via plane or the increasing popular Caribbean cruise and stay holidays, you will find a holiday type to suit your nature. Diving is well catered for in the Caribbean with it being possible to obtain the PADI divers' qualification at all levels. Even if you don't go for the qualification, diving is something definitely worth experiencing with the beautiful coral reefs to take in and for the more experienced there are around 20 sites to explore. There is plenty of seeing in the Caribbean so if you go with the Caribbean cruise and stay option ensure you give yourself enough time to fully enjoy the island.About the Author:
