never met a local here or in JA who couldn't swim. it's like, an essential life skill. just locals tend to congregate in local beach areas, away from the tourist track where possible. can't imagine why when y'all are so delightful

tons of Barbadian peeps down here as well. def defer to your expertise in this regard though

assuming your anecdotal story shared with such infinite respect for the woman is correct, would look at that like white NA parents who tell their kids that a mythical elf will leave them coal in their stockings at xmas if they don't behave.

carry on...
