Overview
The west coast of Barbados bears the nickname Platinum Coast and shows why the island is so popular with couples: calm water, coral sand and dinners with a view of the sea. Holetown was founded in 1627 as the first English settlement and today feels like a well-kept coastal town with small shops. Speightstown in the north is an old harbour town where fishermen sell their catch on the pier and you can mingle with the locals. From December to April it is dry, the air soft and the sea smooth.
Couples snorkel over wrecks, families paddle in the shallow water, and the beaches stay manageable even in high season. The east coast, however, is rough and windy, which makes a strong contrast for a day trip. Helpful to know: English is spoken, a tip is customary if no service charge is on the bill. Cards are accepted in hotels and larger restaurants.
You choose the right stretch of coast without hurry with Private Islands, a video call is enough.
