Rating: 4.8 / 5

Hunte's Gardens in St. Joseph is a magical botanical garden created by the late Bajan horticulturist Anthony Hunte inside a collapsed sinkhole in the central hills. Steep paths wind down through dense tropical planting of palms, heliconias, ferns and flowering trees arranged with theatrical flair, while classical music drifts from hidden speakers. Visitors are traditionally welcomed to the verandah of the Hunte family house with a complimentary rum punch. A small, personal and utterly unique garden experience, long considered one of the island's cultural highlights.
