Things to do in Barbados, Barbados: The Best Sacred & Religious Sites

June 12, 2021 Renato Branum

Romance and adventure are in the air on this lush West Indian island in the Caribbean, depending on your coast. To the west, you'll find calm waters and good swimming. To the east, there are massive, competition-caliber waves. Wherever you stay, expect turquoise waters, fine soft sand beaches, catamaran cruises and delicious island fare.

Oldest Jewish synagogue in the Western hemisphere, dating back to 1654.

Reviewed By rayrest - London, United Kingdom

Located in the aptly named synagogue lane is the Nidhe Israel museum and synagogue that was founded in 1654, making it the oldest in the Western hemisphere. It has been restored and is open to the public and available through tours. Interesting place to come if you get bored of the beaches.

St. John's Church

Built in 1660, this church overlooks the Scotland District and features a pulpit made of six different kinds of wood.

Reviewed By rhondal519

This gothic-design church built in the 1600s is in impeccable condition! The interior built with beautiful deep Mahogany is unbelievably preserved, and the adjacent cemetery on the property is just as fascinating. A spectacular view from this vantage point. So fortunate to be able to visit St. John's Church, it's a must-see on Barbados.
