For a truly tropical New Years Eve, Barbados is just one of those dream destinations for celebrations, with its glittering coastlines and white sandy beaches providing the perfect backdrop for some great new year parties and spectacular NYE fireworks displays.

Although known as the hometown of Rihanna, Barbados is a celebrity magnet that sees the likes of the Beckhams, Cara Delevingne, Mark Wahlberg, Gwyneth Paltrow and then there's Simon Cowell, who tends to venture there for the festive season.

But enough of this celeb talk, Barbados is a gorgeous location to spend New Year or more locally known as Old Years Night, with spectacular golf courses, 5 star spas, take and island safari, or jump on a Bajan Bus for a fun sightseeing tour.

Or don't move from the beach, dabble in a spot of scuba diving, windsurfing or take a leisurely cruise. For sports fans, Barbados is home to some fantastic cricket, rugby and motor sports, so whether it's R&R you've come for or some action packed adventure, Barbados will meet your every need.

New Years Eve Fireworks Barbados

Head to the beach. That seems to be the way forward to watch the fireworks. If you're staying in a hotel resort you'll find they do their own celebrations with fireworks. Or you could wander into Holetown for dinner and head to the First and Second Street Parties where you can bring in the new year with great music, dancing and a whole lot of rum punch!

Barbados NYE Beach Parties

Looking for something more low key, then grab your own champers and a picnic and make a beeline for the beach before midnight and celebrate with 100s of others as the sky is lit up with the fireworks that can be seen from the big west coast hotels.

Wherever you decide you party the night away, remember to head to the east coast beaches where everyone gathers to watch the first sunrise of the new year!
