Barbados to Offer Free, Island-Wide Wi-Fi Access

Barbados will offer island-wide, free wireless Internet access beginning Nov. 11, according to the Barbados Tourism Authority.

The free Wi-Fi is part of an initiative to “expand technology to the locals, boost entrepreneurship and create a better tourism product,” according to a Tourism Authority statement.

The project, named 11.11.11 ON, was initiated by the Barbados Entrepreneurship Foundation and relies on local businesses to open their networks to guests.
