And while the Caribbean is synonymous with pristine beaches, endless sunshine, and those irresistible rum punches, we're here to tell you that this tropical paradise holds a treasure trove of unique experiences far beyond catching a tan.
As your expert agency for all your travel needs, especially when it comes to Caribbean cruises and all-inclusive resorts, we stay ahead of the curve. We know that nearly 29 million people flock to the Caribbean annually, and for good reason! But to truly unlock the magic of these islands, you need to venture beyond the ordinary. That's why we’re excited to share some of the most extraordinary things you can only do in the Caribbean – experiences that will elevate your vacation from great to unforgettable.
Dive into a World of Art and History:
Imagine descending into an underwater art gallery, surrounded by over 500 cement sculptures that double as artificial marine habitats. That's exactly what awaits you at the Underwater Museum of Art (MUSA) off Isla Mujeres, Mexico. Whether you're a seasoned diver or prefer snorkeling from a glass-bottom boat, this unique attraction is accessible to all, offering a truly surreal encounter with art and nature.
Or, step back in time in Cuba, where classic cars from the 1930s, '40s, and '50s are not just museum pieces, but everyday vehicles. Due to historical events, Cuba's streets are a living, breathing museum of automotive history. Take a guided tour in one of these vintage beauties and experience a truly one-of-a-kind journey.
Encounter Nature's Wonders in Unforgettable Ways:
Ready for an adventure you'll be talking about for years? In the Bahamas, you can swim with wild pigs on Big Major Cay, affectionately known as Pig Island. These charming creatures have been delighting visitors for decades, making for an incredibly unique and Instagram-worthy experience. Our team can help you book boat tours to this iconic spot, ensuring you get to frolic with these famous swine!
And for a truly mesmerizing natural spectacle, head to Jamaica's Luminous Lagoon, one of only four spots on the planet where microscopic dinoflagellates create a stunning blue glow when disturbed. Imagine swimming in water that lights up with every movement – it's an otherworldly experience that will leave you breathless.
For the adventurous at heart, Dominica offers a challenging but incredibly rewarding trek to the biggest boiling lake in the Americas. This geological wonder, a flooded fumarole in Morne Trois Pitons National Park, is a testament to the raw power of nature. While it's an eight-hour round trip, the breathtaking views and the sheer uniqueness of the destination make it an absolute must-do for intrepid travelers.
Savor Authentic Flavors and Immerse Yourself in Culture:
No trip to the Caribbean is complete without indulging in the local cuisine. In Jamaica, you have the unparalleled opportunity to try jerk chicken where it was created. This iconic dish, with its fiery spices and rich history, is a culinary journey in itself. We can point you to the best roadside stands and eateries, including the renowned Scotchies, for an authentic taste of Jamaica.
Music lovers, rejoice! Also in Jamaica, you can visit Bob Marley's former home in Kingston, now a museum filled with the legend's personal items. Explore his bedroom, recording studio, and even see a 3-D hologram of the artist. It's an intimate look into the life and legacy of a global icon.
In Trinidad, don't miss the chance to eat doubles where they originated. This iconic vegetarian street food, a delicious blend of curried chickpeas and various chutneys sandwiched between fried flatbread, is a beloved staple for Trinidadians of all ages. You'll find them on every street corner, offering a truly authentic taste of the island.
And for a truly unexpected cultural experience, visit the black-and-white cemetery in Guadeloupe. This hillside burial ground, with its unique checkered crypts, offers a fascinating glimpse into the island's heritage and beliefs.
Experience the Rhythm and Revolution:
Feel the infectious energy of the Dominican Republic by learning to dance merengue where it began. This vibrant dance, deeply ingrained in Dominican culture, is an expression of joy and community. Lessons are readily available, making it easy to immerse yourself in the local rhythm.
Finally, for history buffs, Cuba holds another significant site: the Che Guevara Mausoleum in Santa Clara. This important memorial, dedicated to the Cuban revolutionary, offers a powerful insight into the country's past and its enduring revolutionary spirit.
Explore the Only Tropical U.S. National Rainforest:
Last but not least, in Puerto Rico, discover the El Yunque Rainforest, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. national park system. Despite its relatively small size, this biodiverse wonderland offers breathtaking panoramic views, stunning waterfalls (perfect for a refreshing dip!), and an abundance of unique flora and fauna.
