Caribbean Destination Guide Below the southern tip of Florida lies Cuba, a fascinating country with atmospheric cities such as Havana, oozing with history – from the heroes painted on the walls with cigar smoke spiralling from their lips to vintage cars from the Fifties with colourful bulbous bonnets and sun-bleached paintwork.
Jamaica, home to beaches, beats and the late Bob Marley is the third largest Caribbean island and the perfect place to sample some rum watching the sunset.
Soak up the easy-going vibe on a Caribbean holiday in Barbados by lazing on the pink sand of Crane Beach and later swim alongside Hawksbill Turtles. There are spas for blissful self indulgence in Saint Lucia, plus incredibly luxurious rooms overlooking the mesmerising Twin Pitons, soaring into the cloudless sky.
The Caribbean - two words but so many countries, islands and resorts, each with its own individual character. If you love anything nautical, from watersports to yachting, Antigua is the island for you. Watch the sail boats drift across azure waters while you sip fresh juice from a coconut. Mexico, a land of colour and contrast, also boasts some of the Caribbean's finest white sand beaches and liveliest resorts. Party hard in vibrant Cancun or stray from the neon lights to the peaceful beaches along the Mayan Riviera. And Grenada? What a landscape – crater lakes, rainforests, mangroves and amazing coral reefs. Take it easy in the Caribbean.
