Swaying palm trees, golden beaches, a hammock at siesta time, sunset rum cocktails. These are among the many ingredients of a relaxing Caribbean holiday. Each island is a diverse mix and most islands have kept their own identities and traditions. You can enjoy Carnival in Trinidad, dance salsa in Cuba, immerse yourself in reggae in Jamaica or be initiated into the rites of voodoo in Haiti.
With the new dual colour format, recommendations of great places to stay and eat, from palaces of pampering to rustic beach huts, colour maps and tips for the adventurous traveller, from trekking in Jamaica's Blue Mountains to diving off Little Cayman, hints on where to eat, drink and party and the pick of activities, including trekking, rafting, riding and surfing, this sixteenth edition provides fascinating insights into each island's history and culture.
