There are plenty of things to do on a Caribbean vacation, but perhaps the most popular activity is to simply lounge on the beach. Luckily, the Caribbean has plenty of beaches, however what each beach offers does vary from island to island. Perhaps one of the most popular beaches is 7 mile beach in Grand Cayman but the beaches in Jamaica, and Puerto Rico are quite nice as well.

Snorkeling and diving are also fun Caribbean activities and if you are into this, then you’ll want to visit Bonaire on your vacation where the reef system is very close to shore - so close you can walk to it. Most of Bonaire is a protected marine park, called the Bonaire National Marine Park and charges a $10 fee which is good for snorkeling, windsurfing, fishing, and kayaking for 1 full year. Diving is popular in the Cayman Islands which features unusual marine life such as a variety of sting rays and wall diving. Cozumel has the clearest water and is of particular interest to divers because of it’s spectacular sponges.

Many people like to keep up with their hobbies even while on a Caribbean vacation which is why fishing and golf are popular activities on the Islands. Here you can hire a charter boat and go angling for bonefish or tarpin on any one of the islands. If it’s golf you are into, then you’ll find plenty of places to play in the Caribbean including some world famous courses.

When you get tired of laying on the beach, you might want to add some activity to your vacation with a nice nature walk. There is a wide range of hikes and walks for every skill level. In Dominica you can take a 7 hour hike through a prehistoric like setting. Guadeloupe offers a hike to the summit of an active volcano. On Little Tobago you can take a walk through the scenic sea bird sanctuary. For an easy walk, go through the Asa Wright nature center in Trinidad where you can see your fill of hummingbirds as you stroll through paths in an open sky aviary.

Whether you are shopping for watches at a steep discount in Aruba or Guadeloupe where you can sometimes save up to 50% on items made in France, your sure to have a fun time. Don’t forget to visit Redcliffe Quay with it’s history as slave quarters for great antiques, custom jewelry and designer clothes.
