Ppl with experience at Barbados, what do you guys suggest I see/do and eat? I will be at the south coast at Accra Beach area. Also would love to do scuba diving and other adventurous things like ziplining (do they have?) and atv

Do you mean just during the day or evenings as well?

We've been to Barbados 3 times and on the last 2 trips, did the all day Catamaran trip, latterly with Cool Runnings - not scuba diving but snorkelling at a couple of points on the West Coast, lunch included, we loved it.

If it's your first time in Barbados, maybe an Island Tour, you see both sides of the island; the Atlantic side is very different to the West & South coasts, lunch included.

For the evenings, try Oistins on a Friday night and maybe Roots & Rythmn, floor show, dinner & drinks included in a beach party type event.

Definitely Fish Fry at Oistins on a Friday night! Great food and a nice, mellow party atmosphere among locals and tourists.

Another ^ for Oistens on Friday night.

Silver Moon is another good snorkel tour, which limits the number of guests on the boat so that it isn't a mob scene.

Take a drive around the island and up the east coast. Beautiful coastline, lots of neat old churches an plantations. The Bajan people are delightful.

Accra Beach is a good location. You can walk to lots of restaurants:
Champers; higher end, on a rock above the water, excellent food and service.
Bert's: sports bar with ok food. Focus on hockey during the winter.
Opa: Greek.
Mama Mia: authentic pizza
lot's of other places.
Haven't heard of zip-lining in Barbados, but there is a cave.
