Most people who travel to Barbados stay in one of the lavish resorts or small inns on the island’s famous Gold Coast (Caribbean Coast), a real Tourist Mecca with outstanding beaches, golf courses, boutiques,"hoity toity" restaurants, glitzy nightclubs and all sorts of tourist traps. If you travel to the island’s rugged and sparsely populated Atlantic seaboard, you’ll discover another world altogether – nature reigns supreme here. Dotting the rugged Atlantic coastline are small fishing villages, antiquated churches, unusual geological formations and other natural history attractions, and most importantly a peaceful calm. If you look due east, there is nothing but the vast blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean between where you’re standing and the continent of Africa.

Traveling along the East Coast, you’ll pass thru Bathsheba, a picturesque fishing village, a popular recreational area for Bajans and a world famous surfing beach. Looming in the distance just north of Bathsheba is Chalky Mount, a very unusual geological formation that resembles from a distance, the head of a Sleeping Giant. With his mouth slightly ajar, he looks like he is snoring. Locally this formation is know as Napoleon. Just beyond the Sleeping Giant, is the hilltop village of the Potteries, where local artisans carry on the tradition of fashioning clay pottery similar in design to their African ancestors and the Arawak Indians, the original inhabitants of Barbados and the Caribbean.

Touring “the other side of Barbados” is a delightful change of pace from the throbbing tourism development on the Gold Coast.

A Quick Note From The Publisher... If you like the article above, you may be interested in the following article which is also related to Thailand Travel... Shopping in Thailand My holiday to Thailand was truly an amazing experience. Among the many countless other joys and wonders, Thailand was a great place to shop and Bangkok in particular, where the variety of retail outlets and goods is surprising. I could find genuine name-brand products on sale in department stores for half as much as back home. Even more there are bargains in more down-to-earth places in form of open market stalls that leave you awestruck. With the excellent exchange rates, and amazing discounts, I could find everything that I wanted and that too at exceptional prices. From sophisticated air-conditioned shopping malls to sweaty markets under canvas, to roadside vendors. There’s so much, that one can literally shop till one drops. Thailand is recognized as one of the world's leading gems and jewelry centers and I shopped for some great collection of jewelry. Bangkok's Chinatown or the nearby Ban Mo Jewelry Street should be checked out for exquisite jewelry. Bangkok is the capital of shopping malls, open - air markets, road - side vendors, charming side street antique shops and art galleries. And best of all, Thai handicrafts, the most famous of which is Thai silk. Markets sprawl the streets, even the rivers, of every town in Thailand, so I was never far away from a good buy. A visit to the floating market at Damnoen Saduak, just outside of Bangkok was an unusual experience and I returned with designer clothes, jewelry, pirated DVDs and CDs to tacky, but essential, souvenirs. It was really obvious now why Thailand is famous as being a great destination for the serious shopper. Whatever you are looking for, there’s bound to be an outlet in Thailand.
