The Western Caribbean

The western side of the Caribbean is ideal for those who love sun drenched beaches and want to go snorkelling in the sea. From the Jamaican rainforest to the popular Costa Mayo resort in Mexico, to places like Cozumel and Grand Caymen, there’s endless places to explore. The Caribbean islands have amazing water sport opportunities and some of the best snorkelling in the world, but it’s not all about beach days. Cozumel has an amazing history, with many stunning ancient relics and sites to see on your visit. Jamaica has a rich colonial history, with many Georgian buildings remaining and a thriving, lively and unique culture which needs to be experienced to be believed.


The Eastern Caribbean

Home to the US Virgin Islands, St Maarten, the British Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, the east of the Caribbean has much to offer. From some of the world’s best duty free shopping to take advantage of, to desolate beaches and incredible cocktails. The east of the Caribbean is often referred to as paradise and it's easy to see why. There are lots of touristy hot spots, especially when you first disembark but do a bit of exploring and you’ll be sure to find some of the most impressive secluded beaches.


The Southern Caribbean

A less touristy part of the Caribbean, the southern regions have plenty of attractions and a more off the beaten track feel. Popular destinations to visit include St Lucia, Dominica and Grenada wwhich all have some incredible scenery and are ideal for enjoying luxury breaks.
