If anyone says otherwise, tell them Barbados is home to Mount Gay, the world’s oldest rum distillery. With rum comes fun. We’re talking about popping street parties, raucous regattas and colourful festivals. But with 60 beaches, Barbados is a heavenly haven too. Head north along the coast from capital Bridgetown and you’ll find a string of hidden crescents, golden and foot-print free. The rugged east coast? Well, that’s another story.

Your Guide to Barbados
Your Guide to Barbados
Knock-out Y.CO itineraries tie foodie street parties to glorious botanical gardens via a glass of famous Mount Gay in a Bajan rum shack. But they’re active too. Find shipwrecks to kayak over and then head to Bathsheba Beach for the region’s best surfing. Something chic? Over on the west coast, you’ll find some of the Caribbean's smartest restaurants. Octopus carpaccio, please. More? OK, here’s why you should charter a superyacht in Barbados.
Your Guide to Barbados
Barbados reaches farther into the Atlantic than any other Caribbean destination. That means regular swells on the east coast all winter. Beginner? Have your Y.CO crew book you in with the island’s best teacher. Know your barrels from your bommies? Head straight to the Soup Bowl: it's where Kelly Slater – the all time greatest surfer – shoots documentaries. Don’t worry if you fall off – all you'll hit is powdery sand.
Your Guide to Barbados
All species of turtle. And all found in the warm waters around Barbados. Swerve Alleyne’s Bay – it gets too crowded – and position your Barbados charter yacht off rugged Freights Bay at the very south of the island for some early-morning turtle time. You could have your Y.CO crew fetch seabobs. Or the snorkelling gear if you want to get close. It’s a great spot for beginner surfers too.
Your Guide to Barbados
Yes, 200. Don’t worry, though, your Y.CO charter yacht crew will know the best ones to position off according to your experience and what you want. Done with man-made reefs? How about a night dive? Dottins, a dive site off the western ‘platinum coast’, is the best place for it. Its south side is packed with creole wrasse and yellow tail snappers. The north? Stingrays and barracuda!
