CROP OVER

The Crop Over festival of Barbados

has found its beginning as an 18th

century festival to celebrate the

harvest of sugar cane. At this time

Barbados was the world’s largest

producer of sugar. As

Barbados' sugar industry declined

so did the Crop Over festival and in

the 1940s the festival came to a

halt. The decline of the sugar

Industry allowed for tourism to

become the main economic driver

in the Barbadian economy. In an

effort to stimulate visitor arrivals in

the summer months the

Government of Barbados

reinvigorated the Crop Over Festival

under the auspices of the National

Cultural Foundation in the 1970s.

The festival now runs from May until

the first week in August and it has

been estimated to bring at least

US$35 million dollars into the local

economy annually.

Planning your next Trip

BAJAN PlaylistThe Best Therapy Sometimes is a Trip and

Music


Did You Know?The Flying Fish is also known by its

scientific name as the Exocoetidae.

They are common to most tropical

seas and are found in the warm

waters surrounding Barbados. It is

the national icon of Barbados and

can be seen on coins, bills, and

menus. Flying Fish is usually served

lightly breaded and fried, with a

yellow sauce. Be warned that this

yellow sauce consists of very hot

Scotch Bonnet peppers with onions

in a mustard sauce.

A streamlined torpedo shape helps

Flying Fish generate enough speed

to break the water’s surface, and

large, wing-like pectoral fins help get

them airborne. It is said that Flying

fish can soar high enough that

sailors often find them on the decks

of their ships. Barbados Good Morning – Peter Ram

Yellow Fever Vaccination –Before booking your

trip, especially to the Caribbean its essential to

get vaccinated against yellow fever at the

moment. Ideally this is done at your local health

facility in your respective countries. No

international yellow fever card often leads that

you may not be able to embark the aircraft.

Dialect- Most if not all countries have a dialect

spoken by locals which most of the time sounds

markedly different from the official language.

Familiarize yourself with the local dialect as this

makes it easier to interact with the locals.
