It’s time to start dreaming of your next trip. Here’s some destination inspiration for you. Take a visual journey through Barbados with us.
Venture to the island’s lone accessible sea cave, Animal Flower Cave, at North Point, St. Lucy. Coral steps lead through an opening in the roof into the cave, home to sea anemones (locally called animal flowers). On calm days, swim in the natural rock pools in the cave or catch a glimpse of the Atlantic Ocean through the cave’s openings. © Helioscribe | Dreamstime.com
Spend the day at Bathsheba, the main fishing village in Saint Joseph. Home to quaint churches, Flower Forest and Cotton Tower, this town also boasts a beautiful beach often known as the Soup Bowl. Here, local and international surfing competitions are held each year. Spot Bathsheba Rock located slightly offshore. © Richard Semik | Dreamstime.com
Go scuba diving in Carlisle Bay, situated in the southwest region of the island, and witness relics like ships and anchors on the ocean floor. Or, opt for a visit to Needham’s Point Lighthouse, one of Barbados’ historic lighthouses. © Irishka777 | Dreamstime.com
Pink-hued sands and clear waters make Crane Beach a popular spot for travelers. Found on the island’s southeastern coast in St. Philip, make a day of the beach by renting loungers and umbrellas and jumping the waves. © Filip Fuxa | Dreamstime.com
Walk amongst a botanical garden rich in Caribbean flora at Hunte’s Gardens. A popular attraction in the St. Joseph Area, these gardens include rare, exotic plants; birds; and refreshments like tea, coffee, cakes and even rum punch. © SimonDannhauer | Dreamstime.com
Did you know polo is one of the most popular sports in Barbados? The sport became popular in the late 19th century with British officers stationed on the island and, since then, has flourished with polo clubs and tournaments. If you find yourself in Barbados during such a match, expect a day-long affair complete with high tea, exciting games, dinner and dancing. © Jdazuelos | Dreamstime.com

Sep 17, 2024Uncover the Beauty of Blue Lagoon’s Highland Base Kerlingarfjöll in Iceland
If past trips to Iceland have focused on Reykjavik and nearby sites such as the steamy waters of the Retreat at Blue Lagoon, you may not be familiar with this iconic destination’s other hotel address: Highland Base Kerlingarfjöll, centrally located in an isolated mountain range in the country’s mountain region. It was named for a mythical giantess transformed to stone by the rays of the rising sun, and the resulting 82-foot pillar of volcanic rock still stands as both a reminder of the sun’s might and a powerful argument for sleeping late.
