The Caribbean: Overview
Named for the Carib Indians who thrived on this long, beautiful chain of islands long before Christopher Columbus, it’s no wonder that a people would wish to call the Caribbean islands their home.
The reasons are both numerous and obvious: vast white sand beaches, incredible, often hedonistic nightlife, coconut trees as far as the eye can see, crystal clear ocean that’s almost impossibly blue, and a people more welcoming that perhaps any other in the western hemisphere. The Caribbean is truly a holiday-goer’s paradise.
Travellers looking for culture over nightlife may want to steer towards the larger island nations of Jamaica, Haiti, Dominican Republic, and Cuba. For a true tourist escape – complete with world class, modern amenities, literally the best diving in the world and massive seaside resorts catering to one’s every wish and whim – look no further than the lush islands of St. Maarten, St. John or Anguilla.
