Friday is fish day in the Caribbean, and the village of Oistins, on Barbados’s southern coast, hosts its famous Oistins Fish Fry. During the week, market stalls sell fresh dorado, barracuda, swordfish and more. Come Friday night, locals, dressed in their finest, along with tourists drink beer and rum and enjoy heaping plates of grilled fish, fish cakes and lobster. Stalls sell crafts, and everyone dances to live music from the band shell.

Here you’ll mingle with the area’s millionaires (and billionaires) at prestigious stores like Calypso St. Barth, Cartier, Hermès and Jimmy Choo and at art galleries, antique stores and fine restaurants.
