Barbados
Cobblers Cove
Barbados is a coral island, pushed out of sea by volcanic activity in a far away time. On the west coast
of Barbados, coral shore beaches of fine white sand stretch along a blue-green sea. Coral reefs fringe
the Barbados shoreline to provide excellent snorkeling and scuba diving. Along the east coast a lively
surf is blown briskly by the strong and constant trade winds and the waves pound against a rocky shore.
The constant breeze of the trade winds give Barbados a mild and pleasant tropical climate.
Barbados is mostly a flat coral island with excellent beaches, but there are rolling hills and many deep
ridges and gullies, with an interesting distribution of flora and fauna. Within the Barbados coral core
there is a vast array of caves & underground lakes which provide an excellent supply of drinking
water that is amongst the purest in the world.
Barbados is a very beautiful island, with lots of art, activities, night life, music, history, and some of the
best restaurants to be found anywhere. But what makes Barbados even more special, and the
reason why so many visitors keep returning to the island year after year, is the people. Barbadians,
called Bajans, are warm and friendly souls, always ready to greet you with a sincere smile. Bajans make
you feel welcome and special, in this lovely Caribbean Island. You'll feel its your home and you will
want to come back again and again.
