3 reasons to visit the Caribbean
What are the main tourist attractions in the Caribbean? Which islands should I visit? Why opt for a Caribbean cruise? If we had to give three good reasons to visit the Caribbean, here are the ones that really stick out.
To discover the incredible seabeds
Visiting the Caribbean by boat is the best way to explore the islands spread between Florida and South America. Diving and snorkelling excursions will allow you to admire the remarkable coral reefs and the numerous endemic species in the clear, calm and shallow waters. You can peacefully explore the seabed, even as a beginner. On diving excursions, it's not unusual to encounter rays and sea turtles, particularly in Saint Barthélemy in the French Antilles. Like in the Tobago Cays, multicoloured fish such as parrotfish and squirrelfish mix with barracudas, crabs, lobsters and octopuses in a breathtaking display.
To enjoy the paradisical beaches
With fine, white sand and palms and coconut trees with fronds that tickle the surface of the crystalline water, the Caribbean's beaches are as pretty as a picture. Travellers who opt for a Caribbean cruise can also enjoy and the ultimate relaxation granted by the magnificent bays. From a private beach on the island of Mayreau to the long stretches of white sand on Bequia island in the Grenadines to Grand Anse, one of the archipelago's most beautiful beaches, there is no shortage of idyllic ocean panoramas, enchanting calls and unforgettable memories.
To visit the outstanding natural areas
Head to Les Saintes to discover Mire Hill with its botanic garden which offers a gorgeous view out over the Bay of les Saintes, Grand Îlet, a paradise for turtles and seabirds and the Pain de Sucre peninsula, a rock formation made from a flow of molten basalt rock. Visit Soufrière on the island of Saint Lucia to see the iconic Les Pitons, a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose volcanic plugs are the source of the rejuvenating hot sulphur springs.
