The Experience
Yes, there will be beautiful beaches. But this experience is for travelers who want to get out and discover the island.
Experience Barbados above ground, underground and beneath the Caribbean Sea through adventure, nature, history, culture and restorative downtime.
The goal isn’t to simply see Barbados. It’s to experience it.
Your Adventure
Move from the Caribbean Sea to underground caves, historic sites and restorative moments in nature.
Begin on the water with beautiful views from a glass-bottom boat, then dive in to discover tropical fish, sea turtles and Barbados’ underwater world.
Prefer to stay dry? The glass-bottom boat still offers a window into the Caribbean beneath you.
Come curious. Leave exhilarated.
Journey beneath Barbados through a limestone cave system filled with streams, stalactites and dramatic natural formations.
Then head above ground for nature, wildlife and adventure—including the opportunity to zipline through the lush landscape.
Discover the island’s natural history while trying something new.
Descend more than 100 feet beneath the Caribbean aboard a real submarine.
See coral reefs, tropical fish and Barbados’ underwater ecosystem from an entirely different perspective. No swimming required.
A true bucket-list experience.
Discover a surprising connection between Barbados and the United States at the only place outside the future United States where George Washington ever lived.
Explore the historic Garrison and its tunnels while seeing how this Caribbean island became intertwined with American and Atlantic history.
Come curious. Leave seeing history differently.
After several days of exploration, slow down and experience Barbados at your own pace.
Sleep in, relax at the beach or pool, explore shops and restaurants, book an optional experience—or do absolutely nothing.
This day belongs to you.
End the week by connecting with one of Barbados’ most magnificent animals.
Learn to groom, feed and ride horses while building confidence, practicing mindfulness and experiencing the calm of these gentle animals.
Come back to the ground—literally and figuratively.
