Escapada romántica a Barbados: Momentos para dos
Crea recuerdos inolvidables con tu pareja en Barbados, el destino romántico por excelencia.
Barbados is a stunning independent island nation located in the Lesser Antilles, on the border between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Historically known as the undisputed birthplace of distilled rum, it stands out for the stark contrast between the serene turquoise waters of its West Coast (Platinum Coast) and the wild waves of the Atlantic at Bathsheba. It combines UNESCO-recognized colonial coral stone architecture, underground stalactite caves, elegant plantation mansions and an infectious joie de vivre epitomized by the 'Bajan' culture and its traditional 'rum shops'.

Strict Ban on Camouflage Clothing
In Barbados it is strictly prohibited by law for civilians (including children and foreign tourists) to wear military camouflage printed clothing, pants, caps, backpacks or accessories. The use of this print is reserved exclusively for the Barbados Defense Forces and customs police will confiscate these garments upon arrival at the airport.
Driving on the Left and Transport 'ZR'
You drive on the left side of the road (British heritage). To rent a car, a temporary local driving license is required, which is processed by the rental agencies themselves. To get around the south and west coast economically and authentically, private minibuses known as 'ZR vans' (white vans with a maroon stripe) run continuously with reggae music at a very low fixed price each way.
Currency and Payments (Barbados Dollar and USD)
The official currency is the Barbados Dollar (BBD), which has an official fixed exchange rate pegged to the US Dollar of 2 BBD = 1 USD. US dollars in cash are universally accepted in all establishments, taxis and restaurants on the island. International credit cards are widely accepted in shops and hotels.
