Prince Harry is headed to the Caribbean

The royal redhead is gearing up for two weeks of island hopping as he represents the Queen in seven countries including Barbados and St Lucia.

The fun-loving royal will kick off his tour in Antigua and Barbuda on Nov. 20th, and take day trips to nearby countries to learn about conservation projects, youth empowerment and sports for social development.

His visit to Barbados and Guyana will coincide with the nations’ 50th anniversary of independence.

“Prince Harry holds special memories of his last visit to the Caribbean, and of the warmth, friendliness and sense of fun that comes so naturally to this region,” reads a statement from Kensington Palace. 

“His Royal Highness is greatly looking forward to meeting more of the people who call it home, and for the opportunity during this tour to be visiting some countries for the first time.

“This visit will allow Prince Harry to experience more of the unique and individual cultures and traditions of these special Commonwealth Realms and countries,” continued the statement.

The 32-year-old prince last toured the region in 2002 as part of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.

He also enjoyed a Caribbean vacation with his late mom, Princess Diana, when he was just 8.
