So after a very pleasant sea day where we used the opportunity to get some packing done we arrived in our final destination of Barbados. Can't believe that this is where we boarded the ship two weeks prior. How quickly did the time go .

We decided that we would be spending our final full day at Brandon Beach , we had heard about this beach at one of the information talks done onboard Arvia . After picking up a taxi from the port , and a fare of 10 US dollars we arrived at the beach .

When we arrived they were just putting out the sunbeads and umbrellas , the beach was very quiet , and remained this way all the time we were there . It was beautiful , the sea was a perfect turquoise colour , so warm and really easy to get into .

We went to the beach bar and restaurant for our lunch , which was very nice.After an enjoyable day we got a cab back to the ship .

That evening we had dinner in the Olive Grove restaurant , and enjoyed some music in the Clubhouse .

The following morning was time to disembark , but not before having breakfast and a final walk around the promenade deck . We had to vacate the room by 9 am , and were being picked up at 13.30 for the transfer to the Airport . We are glad to say that everything went to plan , the flight left more or less on time . We had a good flight back to the UK , and even managed a few hours sleep . It was a shock to get of the plane at Gatwick and be greeted with a thick frost , so make sure you dress appropriately .

In conclusion , it was a fantastic cruise aboard Arvia , our first time to the Caribbean but its not our last as we have already booked to return aboard P&O Britannia in 2025 .
