Barbados is a small country located on a tropical island of the same name. Geographically Barbados belongs to the Lesser Antilles, while culturally – to the Caribbean region, which is associated primarily with hot climate, tropical vegetation and miles of beaches. These associations are the most justified because Barbados is a paradise island where you can forget about everyday problems. The eastern part of the island is particularly popular, due to the snow-white color of sand on wide beaches it is called the platinum coast. Combined with the azure sea and palm trees growing here and there, platinum beaches are an ideal place for a dream holiday.
