Should I rent a car in Barbados with Zest Car Rental?

In short, yes! Hiring a car in Barbados offers you the freedom to explore hidden gems only accessible by car. Barbados is a picturesque island with diverse landscapes, and one of the most rewarding experiences you can have with a hire car is to embark on a scenic drive along the rugged and breathtaking east coast. Start your journey in Bridgetown or wherever you're staying and head towards Bathsheba, a charming coastal village famous for its striking rock formations and world-class surf. Along the way, you'll encounter hidden coves, dramatic cliffs, and lush tropical vegetation.

Barbados boasts a rich history, and a hire car provides the perfect opportunity to explore the island's historical sites at your own pace. Start your day by driving to Bridgetown, the capital city of Barbados, and park your car near Independence Square. Stroll through the charming streets of the UNESCO-listed Historic Bridgetown and its Garrison, where you'll encounter well-preserved colonial architecture, including St. Michael's Cathedral and the Barbados Parliament Buildings.
