Bus

Getting around the island

The bus system is excellent in Barbados, especially along the West and South coasts. Bus routes tend to radiate outwards from Bridgetown’s three bus terminals, which are a 10–20min walk from each other. All buses, irrespective of type or distance charge BD$3.50 per journey.

Bus terminals

Broadly speaking, Granville William Bus Terminal (formerly Fairchild St, and this entry’s map location), bang in the centre of Bridgetown, serves the South Coast and most Central and East Coast destinations.

Princess Alice Terminal, at the northern end of town, serves the West Coast, a few Central and East Coast destinations and the North.

Although a few ZRs (see below) leave from Princess Alice, the other ZRs and yellow buses leave from the relatively new Constitution River Terminal, which is a 5–10minute walk along the river behind Fairchild St Terminal.
