Which car rental in Barbados is right for me?
When you rent a car in Barbados you are ideally placed to enjoy the island's stunning and varied scenery. Strangely for an island country, Barbados has the world's sixth-highest density of roads. There is only one major road, however, the ABC highway which joins the main towns of the island's West coast. This is generally well-maintained and signposted. Drive with caution on other roads as they feature narrow carriageways, sharp bends and steep inclines and are unlikely to be lit at night. Watch out for pedestrians on the road as pavements are rare. Like all capital cities, Bridgetown can become very congested.
