Sunset Apartment - Shopping in Barbados

For Tax free shopping you will need to present your immigration form or passport and ticket at the point of purchase, alcohol and tobacco are delivered to the point of departure everything else can be taken at the time of purchase.

Diamonds International, The Royal Shop, Cave Shepherd , Harrisons, Little Switzerland & Colombian Emeralds International are the big Duty Free stores. There are many other shops selling everything you would expect from holiday destination as well as the everyday things seen in any other country.

The main supermarket chains are SuperCentre, Trimart, Jordans and Emerald City these stores open different hours and shorter hours at the weekend our tip is to check sell by date on fresh products such as milk, yoghurts etc... and also crisps & nuts.

There are many local Rum Shops that tend to have more alcohol than food but they are definitely worth a tr if you are desperate for a particular item.

Many Filling Stations have a good selection of basic supplies and some are open 24 hours.
