Some people don’t realise that Cuba is a Caribbea`n island – it is possibly thought of more for its culture and as being South American, with its vibrant Hispanic/Latino capital, Havana, top on the list for visitors.
But it has the paradise beaches you expect of the Caribbean too – so it’s a really great island to visit for those who like a mix of both!

Not to be confused with the Dominican Republic, this island is mountainous (well volcanic actually) and has many geothermal spas. There are plenty of places where visitors can relax in hot spas – and even visit the bubbling lake. The island is also covered by rainforest and edged by sandy beaches – this is the kind of place that we imagine you might find Robinson Crusoe living in a tropical tree house!

Territory of the US – as the name suggested, these islands are picturesque and perhaps the perfect example of how we all think of Caribbean islands.
Life is relaxed and lived on the beach – with rum and West-Indian food in abundance.
