Walk this strip for the tax-free luxury deals at Cave Shepherd, but stay for the local energy. It is the pulse of Bridgetown, packed with duty-free jewelry and high-end tech. Avoid the midday heat by hitting the shops early, then grab a cheap, authentic lunch from a side-street vendor. Most island highlight tours swing through here for an hour, which is plenty of time to browse before heading to a rum distillery for the real fun.
