Caribbean & Mexico
Caribbean & Mexico
The irresistible lure of colourful variety
It’s all idyllic landscapes, take-it-easy vibes and tales of buried
pirate treasure in the Caribbean… at least, that’s what the
newbies think. But those in the know, they see that not all of
these islands are cut from the same cloth.

Not all of these islands are cut from the same cloth
Take Barbados for example, where a love for cricket and polo
brings out its sporty side, contrasting with Antigua’s peaceful
coves, yet complementing the adventurous fit-families that hike
through the dense wilderness of St Lucia and the Dominican
Republic. The playground of the Bahamas beckons with
shipwreck dives and all-singing-all-dancing water parks and
fresh-faced musicians quickly pick up Jamaica’s languid rhythm,
while the only effort required in low-key Grenada is to learn
about bean-to-bar chocolate making. If the grandparents are
along for the ride, you can find the group on charming Nevis
or heading out of the area altogether to alight on the shores of
spiritual Mexico. And while the BVIs and St Barths compete
over who has the most stylish shores, the chicest of clans are
hidden away on Canouan’s discrete sands.
At the end of the day, differences really matter not, because the
Caribbean’s ability to bring families together in unhurried bliss
is second to none.
