Raving at Harbour Lights | Barbados

In Barbados on a Wednesday evening? Looking for some good food, entertainment and free drinks? Then you need to head down to the Harbour Lights in St. Michael. 

Offering free drinks til midnight, a BBQ dinner and a family friendly show which encompasses the colour and creativity of the Bajan culture, the Harbour Lights beach extravaganza was a fun way to spend a warm February evening. 


We weren't too sure what to expect when we decided to book in for the show, but we were presently surprised. Yes, it was a bit cheesy, and yes, it is purely for tourists and not for the locals, but it was fun all the same. 

The dancing, music, and performances got everybody on their feet and participating. Plus, it's really hard not to love the feel the sand on your feet whilst dancing away with a free rum in your hand.



The live band played enticing calypso tunes which set the scene beautifully and the infectious performances by fire eaters, stilt-walkers, and 'limbo queen' guaranteed a smile on everybody's face. 




It was a great way to meet other tourists as you were all sat together on big tables, so you found yourself getting to know people from all over the world. It was also a good opportunity to share recommendations of other things to do whilst in Barbados and learn a bit more about what bought people from all walks of life to Barbados. 



After the show was over, the nightclub opened and you could carry on the party dancing under the stars in the open aired club. The Caribbean music was pumping loudly and the night was deliciously warm. We danced under the coconut trees, sipped rum, and had an absolute ball. 



If you're looking for a hardcore rave, you'll be disappointed; but if you're looking for a laid back night of fun, laughter, and the chance to socialise with other tourists, then it's definitely worth checking it out.
