Imagine a place where you can swim year-round in warm turquoise waters, explore tropical rainforests, dive the world’s second largest barrier reef, climb extinct volcanoes, shop duty free at open air markets and quaint specialty stores, and experience Dutch, South American, North American, British, French, African, and West Indian cultures. This place has towering mountains and stunning waterfalls, exotic animals and unique plant life. You can visit historic sugar plantations and rum distilleries, military forts, churches and other outstanding manmade landmarks, as well as caves, waterfalls, natural bridges, and other creations of Mother Nature. You can do all of this and more, or you can do nothing but laze in a hammock and soak up the sun. All this is possible in the Caribbean, perhaps the most exciting and culturally diverse area in the world.
