Discover nature's bounty as you drive around Barbados with stops at some of the most colorful spots on the island. After a drive up the coast, you'll stop for photos at Bathsheba Beach, where waves, wind and time have carved giant mushroom-shaped rock formations that jut out of the pounding surf. Then, you'll exchange shots of rocks to flowers with a tour of Andromeda Botanical Garden. Nestled on a cliff overlooking the coast, this lavish six-acre garden features over 600 species of exotic plants as well as a grotto-like lily pond and one of the world's largest palms trees. Along the way you will pass through lush hillsides of softly swaying sugarcane to the small eastern village of Belleplane. Your leisurely drive continues along winding roads featuring many varieties of plants and overhanging trees among coral stone walls.
