4. Jamaica

Known fondly as “the land of wood and water,” Jamaica’s forests feature prime hiking and bird watching. History buffs can explore heritage sites like Trelawny, while Montego Bay is perfect for snorkeling and shopping, and the spas of Ocho Rios can make any stress melt away.

3. Dominican Republic

The second largest and most diverse Caribbean country, the Dominican Republic is a destination like no other, featuring nearly 1,000 miles of coastline, 250 miles of the world’s top beaches, magnificent resorts and hotels, and a variety of sports, recreation, and entertainment options.

2. Playa del Carmen, Mexico

The heart and soul of the Caribbean, Puerto Rico is a place where the Old World is mashed up with the new on an island that is small in size but offers an immense bounty of one-of-a-kind experiences, exceptional food, pristine beaches, majestic mountains, relaxation, and adventure.
