Bridgetown is the southernmost port on the island of Barbados and its capital. The beaches are plentiful, as is the seafood. Enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and diving in the beautiful blue waters of the Caribbean or try your hand at a local cricket match.

Kingstown is best appreciated for its West Indian feel rather than for any grand attractions. It's a good place to relax and stroll the cobblestone streets. The town gets its unique atmosphere from the produce vendors along Bay and Bedford streets, the crowds at the fish market and rum shops, and it stone-block colonial buildings.

Carriacou Island is one of the Grenadines,the most beautiful archipelago in the Caribbean. The name Carriacou itself is supposed to come from the Carib word for the island meaning "land of many reefs". In 17th and 18th Century records it was spelt Kayryouacou. Although only 13 square miles Carriacou is the largest of the one hundred or so Grenadine Islands dotted between St Vincent and Grenada. It offers the naturalist and ecotourist alike, some of the most memorable moments and experiences in the Grenadines. A rare and intriguing paradise.

Hospitable and always sunny, Curacao bids you a warm welcome. The friendly inhabitants, first class hotels, wonderful climate, crystal clear seawater, fascinating architecture, floating market, pontoon bridge, secluded bays, rich fauna and flora, and the many possibilities for excursions and entertainment make Curacao the tourist's paradise.

Blessed with a non-stop breeze, neat little Oranjestad reflects the Dutch passion for cleanliness. Stroll the town's chic shops, venture out to see the wind-formed divi-divi trees, or visit an undersea garden of brilliant corals on a semi-submersible craft.

Port Royal, an historical haven for pirates, sank into the sea in 1692, the result of a massive earthquake. A major part of the town lies beneath the sea to this day. Termed the "wickedest city in the world", it was used as the Royal Navy's main base in the Caribbean until 1905. Once ringed by six forts, Port Royal is now a simple little fishing village.

Nassau/Paradise Island is the capital of the Bahamas. Explore Parliament Square, the government center that dates back to the early 1800s or check out the port's vibrant night life, including more casinos, theatres, and fabulous cuisine than you could possibly fit into a short stay. During the day, there's plenty of golfing, tennis, and swimming.
