Lush and rural, St. John Parish, Barbados, is dotted with quaint villages and plantations, many of which are still working. Its beautiful parish church is usually open for viewing, and the panorama below is worth a trip. So is Bath Beach, and beyond it, Codrington College.
The oldest theological seminary in the hemisphere by some accounts, Codrington's Oxford-modeled buildings sit in breathtaking surroundings that are an inspiration in themselves. It's also an archaeological site of major importance, although that aspect has not yet been developed for public consumption.
