Ecotourism & Experiences: Where Nature Meets Nurture

The Caribbean isn’t just cocktails and cabanas, it’s also a hotspot for eco-friendly escapes. From pristine reefs to protected forests, the islands are championing sustainable tourism so you can explore guilt-free.

Top Pick: St. Vincent’s La Soufrière volcano trek or exploring the Tobago Cays Marine Park’s coral gardens.
Why Go: Feel good about your holiday with adventures that leave nothing but footprints.


Festivals: The Heartbeat of Caribbean Culture

If you think Caribbean culture means beaches and BBQs, think again. It’s the vibrant festivals where the spirit truly shines. Crop Over in Barbados, Junkanoo in the Bahamas, and Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago are just the start.

Top Pick: Barbados’ Crop Over Festival, a summer-long celebration of music, colour, and pure joy.
Why Go: To dance like nobody’s watching and taste culture in every beat and bite.


Grenada: The Spice Island

Known as the Spice Island, Grenada’s aromatic nutmeg and cinnamon plantations are just the beginning. Explore underwater sculpture parks, waterfalls, and charming towns where history breathes through every cobbled street.

Top Pick: A tour of the Grand Etang National Park followed by a visit to a local rum distillery.
Why Go: For the perfect mix of nature, flavour, and friendly faces.


Hiking & Heritage: Trails and Tales to Tell

Fancy a bit of adventure with your history lesson? The Caribbean’s trails are dotted with colonial ruins, indigenous sites, and stories of resilience. Walk the historic Brimstone Hill Fortress in St Kitts or hike Martinique’s Mount Pelée volcano for views that stop you in your tracks.

Top Pick: The Black River Safari in Jamaica for wildlife and waterfalls.
Why Go: Because every step you take is a step back into fascinating Caribbean history.
