Welcome to The Barbados Squidoo Lens!

Whether you just love Barbados or are interested in knowing more about it, you've come to the right place!

As written in Wikipedia, Barbados, situated just east of the Caribbean Sea, is an independent island nation in the western Atlantic Ocean. At roughly 13° North and 59° West, the country lies in the southern Caribbean region, where it is a part of the Lesser Antilles island-chain. Barbados is relatively close to the South American continent, around 434 kilometres (270 miles) northeast of Venezuela. Its closest island neighbours are Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines to the west, Grenada to the south-west, and Trinidad and Tobago to the south, with which Barbados now shares a fixed official maritime boundary.

I hope you enjoy this lens, and I encourage you to send me feedback on information or products that you would like to see on this lens.
