When traveling from the UK to the Caribbean, you’ll be pleased to know that many popular destinations do not require a visa for short stays. However, it's always a good idea to double check the entry requirements, as these can vary depending on where you're headed.
For the best balance of great weather, affordable prices, and fewer crowds, December-April is the prime time to visit the Caribbean. However, if you're looking to save a bit more and don't mind some rain, the shoulder season in May and November is perfect. Just be sure to stay informed about the weather if you're traveling during hurricane season (June-November).
For the ultimate beach experience, Seven Mile Beach in Jamaica offers lively fun, Dickenson Bay in Antigua provides peaceful relaxation, and Carlisle Bay in Barbados promises stunning views and top-notch snorkeling.
The best islands for all-inclusive resorts depend on what you're looking for in your holiday, but Jamaica, Antigua, and Barbados are some of the top choices for luxury, relaxation, and adventure.
For first-time travellers, Jamaica truly stands out as the best island in the Caribbean. Vibrant culture, beautiful beaches, and exciting activities make it an ideal choice for a memorable getaway.
The Caribbean is incredibly family-friendly, offering a mix of beautiful beaches, exciting activities, and cultural experiences perfect for all ages. Plus many Caribbean resorts are designed with families in mind. All-inclusive resorts offer a range of family-friendly amenities like kids’ clubs, waterparks, and supervised activities, making it easy for parents to relax while kids have fun.
Each Caribbean island offers something unique, whether it’s Jamaica’s vibrant culture, the rich history of Barbados, or the unspoiled beauty of Grenada. The best island for your holiday depends on what you're seeking - whether it’s thrilling adventures, a romantic retreat, or simply unwinding in paradise.
If you’re dreaming of a relaxed Caribbean holiday, Grenada is the perfect choice. Known as the "Island of Spice," this stunning destination offers a peaceful, laid-back vibe that’s hard to beat. With beautiful beaches, lush greenery, and serene spots like Grand Anse Beach, Grenada is ideal for those seeking a tranquil escape.
