Collectively the coral reefs of Barbados are populated by approximately 10 species of soft corals and approximately 31 species of hard corals. They form a unique habitat for a wide diversity of fish species, which constitute a considerable portion of the seafood diet of Barbadians, and hence support jobs within the local fisheries sector. Coral reefs also support the thriving dive operator sector of the tourist industry, where the coral reef is the tourism product being offered to visitors. |

The Barbados Olympic story began in 1952
when Ken Farnum, a Barbadian who at the
time was the region’s best cyclist, competed at
the Olympic Games in Helsinki, as part of the
Jamaican team.
With the formation of the West Indies
Federation in 1958, Barbados became part of
the West Indian team, which competed at the
Olympic Games in Rome in 1960. It was at the
Rome Olympics, that a Barbadian won the first
and only Olympic medal to date. James
Wedderburn was a member of the West Indies
4 x 400m relay team which placed third.
Grantley Sobers, a weightlifter, was the other
Barbadian representative on the West Indies
team |
