Help the Turtles at Hilton Barbados

If helping a worthy cause makes you feel a bit less guilty about vacationing in far-flung, exotic spots, then the Hilton Barbados has a package designed just for you – the Hilton Barbados Turtle Swim Package. Yep, help the turtles and have fun all at the same time.

The package includes a 50% discount on participation in the Turtle Swim experience at the Hilton, but also gives 5% of the cost of your package as a donation to the Barbados Sea Turtle Project to take care of the protected hawksbill turtles of the area. With nightly package rates starting at $229, they also include breakfast for two and a complimentary upgrade if it's available.

Helping the turtles has been done before – the Westin Puerto Vallerto has done it, and so has the Marco Island Marriott, just to name a couple. But c'mon, turtles are still cute and we don't really care if it's not such an original idea, we still want to help them out.
