Description

Oistins, in the parish of Christ Church, is a major fishing community in Barbados with a modern fishing market. At Oistins, the visitor can see Barbadian fishing boats (at right) and the weaving of fishing nets by local fishermen. Oistins is the site of the annual Fish Festival which honours those who contribute to the local fishing industry. Just around the corner from Oistins is Miami Beach, a great place to take a swim!
