Spent many winters in Barbados, suggest you omit Cherry Tree Hill and the monkeys. You are likely to get there and see rustling in the tree tops period. I saw more monkeys scavaging in our backyard than on Cherry Tree Hill. The turtles, on the otherhand are awesome. As stated above the Tiami trip is really worth it we did it at least twice every winter.

 We used to get onto the beach on the St James coast via public footpath  about one hundred yards from the Sandy Lane beach and use their beach (sit on the sand and swim because there are no urchins or rocks just beautiful fine sand).All the beaches in Barbados are public they cannot be cordonned off, that`s the only way you can get on the Sandy Lane  beach.

 Doesn`t sound like you`re a shopper which is just as well there are no big bargains in Barbados even so called duty free is more expensive than other islands.

 Finally , if you were going to take a taxi tour from one of the cabbies at the port make sure to tell him you want to see Bathsheba on the Atlantic coast its absolutely wild and windswept its really the "other" Barbados. I hope you enjoy your day there we love it.
