Appreciate the tranquillity of St James
There are a number of shops in the town but for a wider selection, head to the capital, Bridgetown. Here you can shop till you drop in the 3 shopping malls, the most popular being West Coast Mall. Designer goods are available to purchase tax free so it’s certainly worth a look. The hustle and bustle of this city is great for a day out but you’ll appreciate the tranquillity once back in St James.
Head round the coast on a catamaran to see the island from a different perspective. Enjoy lunch on board and there’s even time for snorkelling in the crystal clear waters.
