visit the caribbean
The Caribbean is the dream of sun, sand and sea brought to life. With over 7,000 islands, each with its own character, this is a region where white-sand beaches meet turquoise waters, vibrant cultures and a famously laid-back way of life. Whether you’re looking for total relaxation, lively nightlife, or days filled with adventure, the Caribbean has an island to match.

CRUISING THE CARIBBEAN
One of the best ways to experience the Caribbean is by cruise. Sailing from Florida or Puerto Rico, you can hop between islands in style, perhaps sipping rum in Jamaica one day, snorkelling with turtles in Barbados the next and wandering Antigua’s colourful harbours the day after. Cruises combine the comfort of a floating resort with the excitement of discovering a new destination almost every morning.
A REGION OF VARIETY
Each Caribbean Island has its own story. St Lucia is dramatic and romantic with its volcanic Pitons, Barbados combines heritage with lively beaches and Antigua is famous for having 365 beaches, one for every day of the year! Grenada’s spice plantations, the Dutch charm of Aruba and the luxury of St Barts add even more variety. Wherever you go, you’ll be met with a warm welcome, colourful culture and the rhythms of island life.
ISLAND PAIRINGS WITH THE USA
For many travellers, the Caribbean works brilliantly alongside the USA. Spend a few days in Florida, combining the magic of Orlando’s theme parks or the glamour of Miami with a week on the beaches of the Bahamas or the Dominican Republic. Or start your trip in New York, taking in the city’s skyline and energy before boarding a cruise around the beautiful Caribbean islands!
