Caribbean Essentials
What To Know

When is the best time to go? Depends on how much money you have and what you want to do on your Caribbean vacation.

What about traveling by cruise ship? No better way for a quick introduction to Caribbean islands.

Does one island really differ from another? Here's a Caribbean vacation sampler that shows just how different they are.

Where are the best beaches? Excellent question. Some islands have almost none. A Caribbean vacation without a beach? Yes!

Where is the Caribbean's best hiking & walking? You mean Caribbean cloud walking? Or hiking a hundred feet below sea level?

What about seeing animals? Want to feed a shark? Pet a dolphin? Watch nesting sea turtles? Here's where to go for an animal friendly Caribbean vacation.

Who throws the biggest parties? In the Caribbean, they're called Carnivals. Everyone has one of these blowouts.

Caribbean Calendar
for all the islands, what's happening when and where

How do you pronounce Caribbean? Islanders say "ker-e-be-an." So should you. Here's why.

Why is "Caribbean time" different?  Because sometimes the clock seems to run backwards or stand still. But it's a vacation, remember?

Just for fun. Test your Caribbean IQ. Warning! This is irreverent.
