After nearly six years, we returned to Barbados for more diving and rum tourism, plus some birdwatching.

A few updated recommendations:

  • Diving or snorkeling, especially in Carlisle Bay (if you're diving, still go with Roger's)

  • Take a Foursquare Distillery tour

  • In Oistin's, eat flying fish at Annie's (especially on Wednesdays, when Fred's is closed)

  • Near St. Lawrence Gap, don't miss happy hour at Crystal Waters Beach Bar, plus 1/2 priced daily sours at Castaways (especially the old rum sour on Wednesdays)

  • Near Dover Beach, eat Jamaican food at Irie, fish cutters at Sand Dollar Cafe, and shepherd's pie at Drink and Laff it Off.
