The church grounds are tranquil and picturesque, providing a peaceful spot for reflection near the coast.

Still an active place of worship, this landmark is a must-see for those interested in Barbados’ heritage, architecture, or simply seeking a serene stop along the island’s west coast.

Visitors can stroll along the waterfront to admire colorful chattel houses, old sugar warehouses, and vibrant local art galleries. The Arlington House Museum offers deeper insights into the island’s past. The town’s beaches are serene, ideal for unwinding away from the crowds. Cozy cafes, fresh seafood eateries, and authentic Bajan rum shops are nestled throughout its narrow streets. Speightstown is not overly commercialized, providing a more genuine, old-world Barbados experience. Whether exploring its heritage, tasting local flavors, or simply enjoying the seaside charm, Speightstown is a must-visit treasure on the island’s less-traveled west coast.
• Barbados Wildlife Reserve - The Barbados Wildlife Reserve, situated in the northern parish of St. Peter, is a peaceful, forested sanctuary where visitors can walk freely among animals in their natural environment. Nestled in a mahogany forest, the reserve is home to green monkeys, red-footed tortoises, iguanas, deer, parrots, peacocks, and more. The monkeys, often the highlight, roam freely and are most active during feeding times at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Unlike traditional zoos, this reserve allows for close, unrestricted encounters, offering a more immersive and relaxed experience. Shaded pathways, stone enclosures, and informative displays make it enjoyable for all ages. It’s a tranquil, educational stop that provides a unique glimpse into the island’s animal life, including both native and introduced species.

Historically, the hill was lined with cherry trees, giving it its name; today, majestic mahogany trees flank the roadway, creating a picturesque canopy. Cherry Tree Hill is part of the St. Nicholas Abbey estate, a heritage site that adds historical depth to the natural beauty of the area. Visitors can also experience the St. Nicholas Abbey Heritage Railway, a 1.5 km heritage railway that offers a 45-minute round trip, including a stop at Cherry Tree Hill for sightseeing.

The area is famous for the Soup Bowl, a world-class surf spot attracting international surfers with its powerful, consistent waves. While the Atlantic currents make swimming challenging, natural coral pools offer serene spots for relaxation.

Beyond the surf, Bathsheba boasts unique geological features, including large freestanding rocks along its golden beaches, remnants of ancient coral reefs. The village’s charm is further enhanced by its quaint churches, like the historic Saint Joseph Anglican Church, and proximity to attractions such as the Flower Forest and Joe’s River Tropical Rainforest.

Ideal for nature lovers and those seeking authentic Bajan experiences, Bathsheba offers a tranquil escape with its blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and vibrant surf scene.

• Saint John Parish - St. John’s Parish Church, perched on a scenic cliff in the parish of St. John, is one of the island’s oldest and most beautiful Anglican churches.

One of its most notable monuments is dedicated to Ferdinando Paleologus, a descendant of the Byzantine emperors who lived in Barbados.
