Romance – Saint Lucia

When you and your loved one need some time to unwind and reconnect, celebrate your love in Saint Lucia. This island’s romantic rolling landscapes are lush and green – some say reminiscent of Hawaii. Its resorts are luxurious and cater to adults looking for privacy with villa and sanctuary-like accommodations tucked into the rainforest or along the beaches. And we can’t forget to mention that the food of love – chocolate – is grown in abundance here.

Beach Bums – Turks & Caicos

If you’re the type who’s always in search of that perfect spot on the sand, look no further than Turks & Caicos. Grace Bay embodies everything a perfect beach should be. Picture miles upon miles of soft white sand and calm water so blue and clear you’ll think you’re floating in a pool.

Adventure Seekers – Jamaica

Travelers who are always on the lookout for their next adrenaline rush will love the energetic vibes of Jamaica. Not only does this island know how to party, it offers numerous adventures both on land and at sea. Climb waterfalls or raft down rivers. Zipline through the jungle or ride horses through the waves. You can even take a ride on a Jamaican bobsled rollercoaster.

Ocean Enthusiasts – Grand Cayman

When the ocean calls, you answer, and Grand Cayman’s surrounding seas are a bounty of Caribbean fun. This island borders the second deepest ocean trench in the world, making it a premier diving and snorkeling destination for all skill levels. Plus, the water here is some of the clearest we’ve ever seen, perfect for viewing all the colorful creatures and corals. We recommend a visit to Stingray City, a sandbar out in the middle of the island’s North Sound that affords travelers the unique opportunity to swim with the friendly inhabitants for which it’s named.

Culture Cravers & History Buffs – Puerto Rico

What’s better than going to the Caribbean and not needing a passport? Visiting an island that’s rich in culture, history, and cuisine. Puerto Rico’s capital San Juan is a labyrinth of cobble stone streets filled with Spanish-Colonial architecture and historical sites. It’s also a hotspot for modern street art, boisterous nightlife, and mouthwatering restaurants. Travelers who love Europe will feel right at home in this paradise.

As one of the world’s most visited destinations, the Caribbean draws millions of paradise seekers every year.
