One of the biggest things that draw holidaymakers to Barbados is its perfect weather. The island has a warm climate throughout the year with an average temperature of thirty degrees during the day and approximately three thousand hours of sunshine every year. Even at hours of darkness, the temperature never drops too low, despite the fact the trade winds of the northeast keep things from getting too hot. Although the island is possibly famous for its turquoise waters, and striking beaches, Barbados has plenty of other interest which is worth discovering for instance: wildlife reserves, botanical gardens, multiple golf courses. Apart from the above-mentioned, the holiday destination is rich in history and culture with plenty of colonial architecture from the days when the British ruled the island. However, if you would rather spend your time basking in the sun and enjoy the calm waters, there are approximately eighty-eight beaches where you can relax during the day. The beaches offer several water sports activities to keep young and old entertained such as surfboarding, paddle boarding, boogie boarding, and jet-skiing. Those who wish to try out something more daring can go scuba diving and explore the underwater world. Barbados is home to several wrecks that have turned into incredible artificial reefs enticing snorkelers and divers from all over the globe. Harrison Cave is a well-known place of interest amongst travelers due to its underground streams, a powerful network of tunnels, and caves, showing some of Barbado's magnificent geology in immense detail. Whether you are renting a villa at Sandy Lane or Royal Westmoreland, Barbados offers travellers incredible nightlife. There are plenty of pubs, bars, and nightclubs with everything from cabaret entertainment to hardcore music to ensure you dance the night away. Apart from its stunning party scene, Barbados loves a good party, with festivals and carnivals hosted throughout the year. If you want to experience the true Bajan culture, then renting a villa at Royal Westmoreland or Sandy Lane during the Crop Over festival during the summer is a great option. The celebration runs from June to August and features all kinds of music from soca, calypso, jazz to reggae.
