Beyond its beaches, Barbados has a rich cultural history. Immerse yourself in the rhythms of calypso and reggae at Oistins Fish Fry, a lively gathering of locals and visitors alike.

Barbadian cuisine, known as "Bajan," is a tasty fusion of African, Caribbean, and British influences. Try the freshly caught flying fish with cou-cou, a traditional cornmeal and okra dish. Don't forget to wash it down with a glass of Barbadian rum, distilled to perfection on the island for over 300 years.
