2015-4-23  Barbados (8-5): Folkestone

This was our 3rd time to Barbados.  It certainly isn't very impressive from the very industrial port.  But away from the port is a beautiful pretty wealthy island.

   First time we were there I took a photo tour and loved seeing the Scottish district and Bathsheba area. The next time we discovered Folkestone Marine Park.  This time we took a taxi and went back to Folkestone.  Fare was about $35/person rt.   Admission into the marine park is free.  

Heading in----

 Looking back towards the lifeguard station, store, and restrooms.

Even came across this rather large barracuda.

 Looking down the walkway.  This is a great area. 

We were happy to see more people enjoying the area this year, but we still didn't run across anyone from the ship.  I wonder why they don't go here?!
