The West Coast region
Art Studios are in St James on the West Coast, a lovely part of Barbados with superb golden beaches, calm sea and beautiful sunsets over the water. It is perfect for relaxing whether you are looking for a good range watersports, snorkelling over coral reefs or simply lying on the golden sands with a good book and contemplating the next rum punch or Banks beer - always a tough decision!
Holetown which is only 400 yards away is where the first British settlers arrived. It is the focal point of the Barbados West Coast with Sandy Lane to the South and bustling, colourful Speightstown 5 miles to the North. Bridgetown is 9 miles to the South.

An excellent local bus service runs up the West Coast linking Holetown with Speightstown, Bridgetown and the South and East Coasts of Barbados. Buses run every few minutes and cost the princely sum of 12 pence.
