Top family-friendly destinations in Barbados

Holetown

On the west of the island, Holetown Beach’s calm waters are perfect for swimmers and paddlers. With kayaking, beach games and seafront cafes nearby, there’s plenty to occupy the family here. For more family fun, head for the Folkestone Marine Park for diving, snorkelling and paddleboarding, before taking a trip to Harrison’s Cave to see otherworldly subterranean scenery.

St Lawrence Gap

When you’re not sipping from coconuts on Dover Beach, you’ll be swimming with turtles off the coast of Folkestone and exploring colourful local markets. Take a trip to nearby Oistins for the Friday night fish fry. Expect big crowds, plenty of seafood and live entertainment for all the family.

Bridgetown

The Bajan capital of Bridgetown is rich in Caribbean culture and family-friendly resorts, not to mention restaurants, markets and museums. And at the Shallow Draught Marina, you can hop aboard the award-winning Atlantis submarine. It plunges down into the depths for an undersea voyage complete with tropical fish, coral and the odd shipwreck.
