The Port of Bridgetown is in the southwest coast of Barbados. The port is located in the northwest end of Carlisle Bay and hosts hundreds of tourists from cruise ships on a day stopover each year. The port can accommodate up to eight cruise ships at a time. If you only have a one-day cruise stopover in Barbados, the first glimpse you’ll have of this beautiful island is from the port.

Just outside the port is a big building where you can find the tourist information desk, facilities and duty-free shopping options. Shop for clothing, jewelry, souvenirs, locally made artworks and more.
