If you’re searching for an idyllic destination that offers lots to see and do, then Anguilla is the island for you. Its pristine and peaceful white beaches (some accessible only by boat) and warm aquamarine waters are some of the most inviting in the Caribbean. The good life extends to its many open-air restaurants and an array of water sports. Maybe you’d prefer just “liming,” a term used by locals that means “hang out and relax with friends.” Anguilla, which is just 35 square miles, has a hot music scene and an array of beautiful resorts for any budget. Just north of St. Martin, and an easy day trip, the island often attracts the rich and famous but always maintains its authentic local charm.

Indian, African, Asian, and European influences have created a unique culture in Bonaire that’s illustrated in its music, dance, and food. Friendly locals are quick to greet you with “Bon Bini” (welcome!). Nature is respected and protected here, from caring for delicate mangroves, to preserving marine life, to creating one of the most important breeding grounds for Southern Caribbean Flamingos, Bonaire works hard to keep their little island looking beautiful. That doesn’t mean they don’t encourage fun in the sun. There are 22 gorgeous beaches, including the stunning black sands of Boka Kokolish.

Curaçao is the “C” of the ABC Islands (following Aruba and Bonaire) that lie north of Venezuela, and is an ideal vacation destination. The climate is perfect year-round, and the colorful Dutch architecture in the capital city of Willemstad is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Clear blue waters make the island a great place for swimming, snorkeling, and diving, while its beautiful landscape invites further exploration. Non-divers can still get up-close and personal with the undersea world by taking a trip 1,000 ft. down on the mini submarine Curasub. There’s also a wealth of history to be discovered. The oldest synagogue in the Western Hemisphere is here, and the Kura Hulanda Museum documents the forced relocation of Africans to the New World from the 17th through 19th centuries.

Locals claim the islands were the first landing place of Columbus, and they have been attracting visitors ever since. Just eight of their 40 islands and cays are inhabited, which means there are so many undiscovered nooks to explore. Each of the islands in the chain have completely individual and unique styles, but they all boast unbelievably beautiful beaches, gorgeous waters, and pristine underwater reefs. Most of the islands are only 10 minutes apart by plane and are also accessible by boat or ferry.
