Car Hire & Barbados Airport Mini Guide
The island of Barbados has only one airport situated in Christ Church, in the south of the island. Originally named Seawell Airport it was re-named after Grantley Adams who was the first Premier of Barbados in 1976. Nowadays it is the main gateway to the eastern Caribbean and operates direct flights to and from many cities in Europe including
London, Paris, Amsterdam,
Canada and North America. It is an important link for cruise passengers departing from Bridgetown, the island's capital as they fly into there from all over the world before picking up their ship.
Barbados is a very compact island to travel around with your rental car. The capital, Bridgetown is on the southeast coast and the airport is situated just a few kilometres away on the south coast. All major car hire companies are represented at the airport, and it really is a very easy place to drive around. There is a very easy, mainly flat coast road running all the way up the west coast of the island, passing the most exclusive hotels and resorts, including the famous Sandy Lane and also many of the houses of the celebrities who have properties there.
