Year round sunshine makes Barbados an ideal spot for a relaxing getaway

With year round sunshine and average temperatures of 30 degrees, Barbados is always a good choice, says Nadia El Ferdaoussi.

LANDING into Bridgetown after incessantly checking my weather app in the days leading up to my trip to Barbados, I was pleasantly surprised to arrive to clear blue sunny skies. I’ve realised you shouldn’t take notice of the forecast for the Caribbean, it almost always says clouds and showers, but that’s usually only for a few minutes a day. So, expect year-round sunshine and average temperatures of 30 degrees. Barbados is always a good choice.

It might be known as the island Simon Cowell holidays on, but you don’t need a millionaire’s budget to enjoy this Caribbean gem.
