Barbados is indeed part of the Caribbean. It is the most easterly of the Caribbean Islands situated at 13° 6' N, 59° 37' W. Although it's a dot on most maps it's swept by the Caribbean Sea on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other. It's location and topography accounts for it's unique history as part of the old colonial British West Indies.
