Cruising in the Caribbean - Auriga takes a holiday!


Barbados


16 days out at sea on the passage from Brazil, all we really wanted was some fresh food and ice cream. After wandering Barbados' capital, Bridgetown we didn't find either. Heading back to Auriga (moored off the most touristy beach, and the biggest bar strip) what we stumbled upon turned out to be much better.

At Dees with Tony

Most bars on Carlisle beach are huge commercial affairs that charge a (high!) set price for the meal and to see the “local” show. Avoiding these, but nonetheless driven by desire for drinks we walked into a tatty looking local bar nestled amongst the tourist traps.
