Yes, but some of the buses are quite small and may not be practical if you have large luggage. If you wish to use public transport, there is a bus shelter just beyond the airport car park. Our island is very safe, and visitors are warmly welcome to use our public transport system.
All buses charge a fixed fee of BBD $3.50 per person, regardless of distance. If you need to catch a connecting bus, the fee is payable again. Public service vehicles operated by the Transport Board accept only Barbadian currency, but most private sector minibuses and route taxis also accept US dollars at an exchange rate of USD $1 = BBD $2.
Don't hesitate to ask someone if you are not sure which bus you need to catch.
