Let’s start with A–D, shall we?
Anguilla: Barefoot Bliss with a British Twist
Think of Anguilla as the Caribbean’s best-kept barefoot secret. Powdery sands, waters so blue they look filtered, and a laid-back British vibe with zero fuss. It’s the kind of place where shoes are optional, rum punch is required, and luxury doesn’t need to shout about itself.
Top Pick: Meads Bay for boutique hotels and seafood so fresh it practically swims to your plate.
Why Go: No cruise ship crowds. Just you, the sun, and that perfect tan line.
Barbados: Rum, Rhythm & a Riot of Colour
More than just a beach break, Barbados is pure Caribbean soul. Think dancing in the streets at Crop Over Festival, sipping spiced rum at a roadside shack, and exploring plantation houses and heritage trails in the morning before hitting that world-famous Platinum Coast in the afternoon.
Top Pick: Oistins Fish Fry on a Friday. Music, dancing, fresh-caught fish, and a vibe you can’t bottle.
Why Go: Culture, colour, coastlines — and flying fish with a side of history.
Curaçao & Cayman Islands: Culture, Coral & Calm
Curaçao brings the party with its rainbow-coloured capital Willemstad and Dutch-meets-Caribbean cool. Picture street art, hidden beach coves, and snorkelling spots so good you’ll forget how to breathe.
Meanwhile, the Cayman Islands are all about reef diving, stingrays, and upscale relaxation. Grand Cayman’s Seven Mile Beach is chef’s kiss, and the local turtles will charm your flip-flops off.
Top Pick: Curaçao’s floating market and Blue Bay Beach.
Why Go: For diving, colour, and Insta-worthy charm with none of the stress.
Dominica: The Caribbean’s Wild Child
Not to be confused with the Dominican Republic (Dominica is smaller, wilder, and infinitely greener), this one’s for the nature-lovers. Dominica offers volcanic valleys, hot springs, jungle treks, and the famous Boiling Lake, which bubbles like your bath after a long day.
Top Pick: Hiking the Waitukubuli National Trail, if you love waterfalls and the sound of birds, this is your jam.
Why Go: It’s the Caribbean’s answer to Jurassic Park (minus the T-Rex).
