Barbados – Welcome to a tropical island with a big heart
Rent an SUV or a 4x4 for your holiday in Barbados
Think of Barbados and it will conjure up images of long white sandy beaches and glorious clear blue seas. Add to this the colourful wildlife and foliage and the warmth from the sun and the local people and you have a dream holiday location.
With car hire in Barbados you can tour the island with ease. There is a different feel to each side of this gorgeous Caribbean nation so your own transport is helpful. Many visitors prefer to hire a 4x4 or SUV as the roads are often uneven.
The west coast is the most glamorous region, with lovely beaches and many high-end accommodation options. There is a huge choice of restaurants to suit all budgets from fish restaurants to grills. Head to one of the local bars to hear a steel band or see one of the many shows. The capital, Bridgetown, is home to the National Heroes Gallery and the Museum of Parliament.
The east coast of Barbados is more rugged, with some very unspoilt and more secluded areas. The wilder waters are great for keen surfers. Martin’s Bay is beautiful, a lively fishing village with a wonderful beach and a good sprinkling of local eateries. Visit the Andromeda Botanical Gardens to the north, six acres of incredible gardens overflowing with over 600 species of plants.
Inland Barbados is where visitors will find evidence of its rich history. Discover plantation houses and sugar cane fields including one of the oldest, St Nicholas Abbey. Head up to the ruins of Farley Hill plantation and watch the sunrise over the Atlantic. It is an experience that will stay with you for a lifetime. Visit Barbados during the first months of the year and you can experience the Rum and Sugar Season. In 2018 there are events taking place up until the 15th April. Cooking classes, tasting tours and cocktail making and much more are all part of the fun.
Come to Barbados to watch the cricket, to enjoy a music festival or to wind down and just savour the views. However you like to spend your holiday, let Clarify Car Hire help you find your ideal rental car in Barbados.
