The Caribbean is known for its wild party like atmosphere during Carnival Week. In addition to the traditional Carnival, there are many other national holidays that are celebrated in the same style... one being Crop Over Festival in Barbados.
"The Crop Over summer festival is Barbados' most popular and colourful festival. Its origins can be traced back to the 1780's, a time when Barbados was the world's largest producer of sugar. At the end of the sugar season, there was always a huge celebration to mark the culmination of another successful sugar cane harvest - the Crop Over celebration." Read more here...
