Speightstown Walking Tour 2021 Barbados The history and culture of , Enjoy the Charm of Speightstown

- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- Located along the northwest coast of Barbados, Speightstown is one of the island's major towns and boasts a long and intriguing history.
Much of the character of Speightstown can be found in its architecture - historic buildings dating back to the early settlement of Barbados alongside modern buildings reflecting a developing nation - and in its people - the sidewalk vendors offering fresh fruits and vegetables, the fishermen unloading their catch along the jetty, local characters hanging out at the Esplanade and friendly sales staff in modern shops and restaurants.
Once one of Barbados's busiest ports, Speightstown has undergone a renaissance of sorts and is once again an active and vibrant town while still maintaining a colonial charm.
The town is home to several beautiful beaches which tend to be less busy than others along this popular coast.

Thank you for taking us on this walk around Speightstown. It was quite lovely
Glad you enjoyed it
What a lovely video of Speightstown my fathers birth town. I can see my cousins house on your footage. There is a lovely little beach near the restaurant Hugos which has now been closed for the past 2 years and some. I'm sure you know of Fishermans Pub a lovely homely local restaurant frequented by both locals and tourists. Reasonable prices.. Heywoods beach is good also.. My first visit to Barbados was 1999 and I was awestruck by it's beauty 😎💕
Thank you for sharing these lovely memories, just fills my heart to know what we share brings you joy 😍
That tour brought back so many memories of walking around there. Thank you. Looking forward to when I can visit again.
Wonderful. Thanks for watching.
Really enjoyed the tour, the town is beautiful in my opinion
Thanks Rosie
Nice Vid. When i was little Speightstown used to be a hive of activity before the Highway was completed. I lived next to the chattel house 16:10
Awww nice that cool. Glad to bring you good memories.
Outstanding beach

If I was to make a video showcasing Barbados this would be it , this was beautifully done, I enjoyed it very much, thank you so much, I was raised in St. James, baywoods area, now living in U.S 😀🇧🇧♥️
Awwww nice so sweet. Thank you glad to bring you good memories.
First of all, you are very blessed to come from Barbados, i've only visited once, 2 years ago, and i fell in love with the place, you do a tremendous job, you have a kool demeanour and make ppl want to visit, i hope i get back now that America will lift the restrictions for the unvaccinated and hope they ease up in Barbados as well
Awww, Thanks for sharing! Your comment help me continue.
I Love this video. I can't wait to visit.
Sabrina, can you make a video showing us your elementary, junior, senior high schools and your old neighborhood you grew up in?? We want to see.
Lol thats an interesting request. I will try my best, I love the Idea too.
@@BajanLifestyles CooL!!
Beautiful historical buildings just need to be restored ! 😊
Definitely!
That's my home town speightstown that u were in
Yea? Its a beautiful Town more people need to know about it.
Loving these local style videos!
OMG, I caught that it was a cute town when I was riding by the Esplanade but WOW I am now officially enchanted!! My cousins used to have a general store on Queen Street like 20 yrs agp, wish they still had it cause Prediction - S'town is going to be a mash up of Holetown and St. Lawrence - not as [ahem] "raw" as The Gap can get (except for that sex shop I saw??) but not as "upper crust" as Holetown. And I'm claiming that blue dress, I sure hope it fits 🤣🤣🤣
Lol Thanks so much Lori. Glad to bring you good memories
Beautiful and friendly town. My grandfather was born in Christ church
Christ Church is nice, but I like a visit here and there to speighstown
Hi I am watching you at the moment. I was born in Barbados, but now live in Milwaukee Wisconsin USA. I plan on visiting Barbados in March, or April. How can I meet you?
Yes that would be great, We are offering tours if you are interested
@6:47. We (Americans) would call it a canal
If I remember correctly as a young girl that was the name (a canal)
Yes yes
The fish is called an old wife or olwife!. Actually very tasty. Islands in the virgin islands st croix etc eat plenty of them.
ahhh ok nice to know hope I get to try it some day
Speightstown was the olx capital city, full of beautiful old 'colonial' (I hate that term) buildings. The main street is not wide and the arrival of the motor car which inevitably crashed into them speeded up their demise
Yes that's very true
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for the love
By the way there are streets in Speightstown not gaps
Thanks for the correction
@@BajanLifestyles We enjoyed the video.
Good night. I usually watch your videos but you seem not to do your research before starting your videos. As a result you are often unsure about places by name and how long services were available in a given spot.
Thanks Carl. Doing my best. Maybe you could pin point specifically what i was to include that wad not included.
@@BajanLifestyles Certainly. Speigtstown is our second largest town. With streets such as Queen, Church, Chapel, Orange and Sand. Major Walk is the road that leads to the Police Station and Speigtstown Bus Terminal. To School which is currently abandoned is called the Alma Parris Secondary School. A school for children with developmental deficits.
Other major landmarks in Speigtstown is the salt pond the canal that runs in an easterly direction and is presently being expanded along the area next to the Gas Station all the way to the bridge at Round the Town
