From late November and up until early April, Barbados is cool, dry, and then some. The weather is generally pleasant with a mild temperature averaging 26 °C during daytime. Rainfall should be the least of your concerns during this time of the year. The weather is perfect for outdoor excursions and beach parties.

Cheap flights to Barbados can be availed anytime between the months of September, October, and November. Owing to heavy rainfalls every now and then, much to the inconvenience of tourists, there is a drop in foreign arrivals. Low-season translates to lower fares and cheaper hotel deals.

British passport holders do not need visa to visit Barbados. British travellers entering the country are allowed a certain period of time for their stay which varies from person to person. The officials have a final say on that.
