Barbados is a distorted
pear-shaped island lying 2585km (1610mi) southeast of Miami and 860km (535mi)
northeast of Caracas, Venezuela. It's about the size of a large US city. The
western coast has white-sand beaches and calm turquoise waters, while the
cliff-lined Atlantic eastern coast is much more turbulent. Coral reefs surround
most of the island. Over eons the buildup of coral on sedimentary rocks has
created the bulk of the island. Water permeates its soft coral cap, creating
underground streams, springs and limestone caverns. The most notable of the
caverns, Harrison's Cave, is one of the island's leading tourist attractions.
The best time to go to Barbados is during the cooler, drier months of
late winter and early spring (February to May). Keep in mind that this is also
the peak tourist season when prices are higher and places most crowded.
The capital of Barbados is a busy commercial city
set on Carlisle Bay, the island's only natural harbor. It's an architectural
hodgepodge of modern and colonial, with side streets leading off into
residential neighborhoods sprinkled with rum shops and chattel houses. True to
the island's British heritage, there are monumental obelisks, gothic
parliament buildings, and a large Anglican cathedral. Military
history buffs should head to the Barbados Garrison, the 17th-century base
of the British Windward and Leeward Islands Command. It has a museum,
fortifications, brigs and cannons a-plenty.
