Other beaches nearby include Holetown, Sandy Lane, Gibbes Beach, Paynes Beach, Batts Rock Bay and Mullins Beach. The Folkestone Marine Park in Holetown spans several kilometres along the coast and was set up to preserve the coral and shallow areas inhabited by turtles. The marine park is separated into various zones, including two sports zones where motorised aquatic sports are permitted, a scientific zone and a recreational zone where you can snorkel in peace and discover the fascinating underwater world. There are snorkelling opportunities in the mellow waters and reefs at Holetown Beach. Holetown is also renowned for its fantastic dining scene. First and Second Streets boasts some quirky bars that embrace the spirit of the Caribbean. Paynes Bay Beach sits in the parish of St James, south of Sandy Lane and Holetown and north of Fitts Village and Batts Rock Bay. It is the perfect sport for swimming and watersports such as kayaking, sailing and jet skis. You can easily walk from Paynes Bay Beach to Sandy Lane Beach. Paynes Bay also boasts the Paynes Bay Fishing Complex, a fish processing hall for the fishermen of the west coast where you can buy fresh local fish. On Fridays, you can buy freshly grilled fish from vendors with delicious Bajan side dishes and Bajan rum to wash it down. Despite being drawn to the beaches, this heavenly island also boasts a stunning interior of rolling hills and wonderful lush botanical gardens. If you only have time for one of the gardens, try and visit the fantastic Flower Forest Botanical Gardens near the village of Bloomsbury, Saint Joseph. It is hard to imagine that the gardens were once a sugar plantation as today, it spans fifty-three acres, all sprinkled with beautiful plants, trees and flowers. If shopping is your thing, the Limegrove Lifestyle Centre is one of the most stylish, upmarket places to head to. It is home to the world’s leading retail brands, including Armani, Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors, Gucci and Ralph Lauren. The open courtyard oozes a wonderful ambience and boasts a stunning waterfall feature. The brightly painted shops at the Chattle Village are renovated Chattle homes and are absolutely charming and worth a stop for souvenirs. Barbados is famous for cricket, polo and golf. It is home to many prestigious golf clubs, including The Royal Westmoreland Golf Club and Sandy Lane, where there are three courses. Holders Hill is the main polo venue on the island, where you can spend a very civilised afternoon watching the polo while enjoying a superb afternoon tea at the same time. Cricket fans enjoy a trip to Kensington Oval, the oldest, prime sports venue in Barbados, established in 1882. Aside from cricket, Kensington Oval is also the venue for soccer, hockey, concerts, music festivals and the summer festival of Barbados, Crop Over.
