A visit to Harrison’s Cave is a must on any tour of Barbados. It is a large limestone cave in the heart of the island. The cave was forgotten for almost two hundred years until it was rediscovered in 1976 and opened for tourism in 1981. Visitors are now driven through it in a tram. To accommodate this, the cave’s passages were widened and a road was laid, which unfortunately caused the cave to lose some of its natural charm.

The Flower Forest is a botanical garden located near Harrison’s Cave, which is also well worth a visit.
