I have always wanted to surf , so when I found a place that was advertising great surfing and surf lessons I was interested. Barbados was the place and what a beautiful place, the water was so warm you did not want to get out of it. I stayed on the far side of the island, away from the tourists, where the locals surf the big waves. The guesthouse was great, Sea U Geasthouse, it was not a tourist trap and the locals were pretty much the only people on that side of the island. I used the bus system to get around and to get to the south side of the island where the waves were smaller and where I learned to surf. Barbados was super clean and the water was safe to drink all over the island. Lots of history and fun places to visit, I saw a lot of the island through the eyes of the locals. When you take the bus around the island to get from place to place you will see more of the island that tourists miss. The roads were super narrow and it was quite an experience riding the bus, especially in the mornings when all the kids where packed on the bus going to school. The people were very nice and always willing to help give directions and socialize. The food was mostly fish and rice, flying fish are the most common and most common meal at the local hang outs. The local beer was great and rum punch is available everywhere. Barbados has great rum. What a wonderful place to visit.
