Barbados is the most Easterly of the Caribbean Island and covers an area of 166 square miles, with a population of 280,000 (Estimated in July 2006). The island is actually an enormous and ancient coral reef that was formed around one million years ago, and with its average of 340 days sunshine per year, friendly inhabitants, well developed amenities and wonderful restaurants and nightlife it is no wonder Barbados is one of the most desirable holiday destinations. The islanders are called 'Bajans' and are mainly West Indian by descent, though the island has ties to England from colonial days when the sugar industry reigned supreme.

Climate

Barbados enjoys a tropical climate, with mostly sunny and fair weather and an average daytime high of between 25ºC and 29ºC (75ºF and 85ºF). The island enjoys approximately 3000 hours of sunshine per year, but these hot conditions are countered by the cooling northeast tradewinds. The dry season occurs from January to July. Hurricanes usually miss Barbados, instead the island can experience some spectacular tropical rainstorms during August to October, usually short and heavy spells of rain that dry up quickly in the humidity. The climate lends itself to a casual dress sense, with cotton and linen items ideal to keep cool. You will not need long sleeves, though some hotels and restaurants have formal dress codes, particularly during the Winter months of December to April.
