The St Peter Parish region
St Peter is the most northerly parish on the prestigious West Coast, with glorious beaches on the deep blue Caribbean, set in a perfect tropical climate. Green monkeys, humming birds and various seabirds are frequently seen, and you may also be lucky enough to spot turtles swimming in the warm waters, or even coming ashore to build their nests. Indeed, one of our guests recently witnessed, on the beach directly in front of the apartment, the hatching of over a hundred baby turtles!
Speightstown area
Less than a 5 minute walk from the apartment you'll find the centre of historic Speightstown, which is the second largest town on Barbados, retaining many authentic and charming buildings and features from its colonial past. Largely untouched by tourist redevelopment, it's a bustling market town with street stalls, local shops, and a friendly atmosphere. The town, however, does have all the amenities you'd expect, including banks, a post office, pharmacies and two supermarkets, as well as an acclaimed fine dining restaurant.
Within a five minute walk there is also a bus station, with frequent services to the whole island, at a set fare of only BD$1.50 per journey (approx. 50p).
The famous "Fishermans Pub" is near at hand, where on Wednesday nights there's a typical Bajan party evening with steel band and dancing.
There are numerous beautiful and spectacular sandy beaches within easy walking distance, at Port St. Charles, Almond Beach and Schooner Bay - and remember, there are NO private beaches on the island!
A wide range of watersports is available at Almond Beach, and for Scuba diving visit the "Reefers and Wreckers" dive shop, where you can book lessons or hire equipment.
For keen golfers, it's only a 10 minute drive to the famous Royal Westmoreland and Sandy Lane Golf Clubs.
A wide range of restaurants and bars are also available in nearby Holetown, which is about a 10 minute drive away.
