Explore the Best Islands in the Caribbean with iBestTravel
1. Barbados
Barbados might just be one of the best all-rounder islands in the Caribbean. This vibrant island boasts top hotels and some of the best beaches, all accessible to the public – there are no private beaches in Barbados. Poolside beverages, spiked with rum distilled on the island, offer a taste of local culture, especially at St Nicholas Abbey, a plantation house, museum, and rum distillery. For those seeking more lively adventures, the heritage railway, racing car circuit, and the Garrison Savannah, host to numerous horse races throughout the year, are inviting. Additionally, the surrounding reefs present exciting opportunities to swim with turtles, snorkel with seahorses, and even spot whales during the winter months.
Where to stay:
- Sandy Lane Hotel – a glamorous venue reminiscent of a British or American country club, featuring three golf courses on its grounds.
- Little Good Harbour – offering quaint rooms that feel like private cottages with a beloved restaurant, The Fish Post, known for its exceptional cuisine.
2. Saint Lucia
