What do I pack for a Barbados holiday in February?

Paul Barbados is never cold, so typical beach holiday wear is recommended all year round. Flip-flops for the beach, comfortable shoes for exploring. Shorts, t-shirts, light dresses, sun hats, swimwear... You get the idea! Casual clothing is acceptable in most restaurants, although lightweight smart clothing is great for evening cocktails.
