Barbados, Destination Elegance: A Taste of Tamarind
When I think of Barbados… I think upscale resorts, world class golf and cricket (being the national sport), surfing the day away in azul crashing waves, pristine secluded beaches, and the colorful lively nightlife of St. Lawrence Gap. Barbados has something for everyone and it has caught my eye for many years. Barbados is commonly referred to the little England of the Caribbean. High tea is often still a ritual in this Bajan culture and the people of this majestic island still speak with a light British accent. It is truly an experience, serene place to relax, or hob knob or party the night away with celebrities.
