San Juan:
The second oldest city in the Americas San Juan was founded
in 1521. Old San Juan has an array of magnificent Spanish Colonial
architecture. No where in this hemisphere will you find better
historical Spanish buildings so lovingly preserved. You immediately
feel the sense of history as you stroll the cobblestone streets
while admiring plazas, wrought iron balconies and of course
the famous fortress, El Moro. San Juan also has a very popular
gay beach and lots of vibrant nightlife. |

St
Thomas: Part of the U.S. Virgin Islands this island
offers a rugged mountainous interior and many fine small cove
like beaches. St Thomas is perhaps best known as one of the
premier shopping destinations in the Caribbean. The island still
has a strong Dutch influence in some of its colonial buildings.
Many people enjoy going to Little Magen’s Bay beach as
has been known as the “gay” beach and is clothing
optional. |

Dominica:
Dominica surges from the sea with soaring peaks that seem to
be courting the heavens. Virgin flora covers these dramatic
mountains, creating swaths of verdant landscapes. The residue
of the fiery forces that created the island thousands of years
ago, as part of the Caribbean Ring of Fire, bellows in several
hot springs, valleys of steaming earth, and a boiling lake which
is the second largest in the world. Along with geothermal wonders
come natural coolants: hundreds of pristine rivers and streams
web the island's lush terrain. Pure rainwater sets brooks and
cascades into motion by rushing down picturesque cliffs. |

Grenada:
Grenada is the most southerly of the Windward Islands in the
Caribbean, and is a tiny point on most world maps with an area
of only 133 square miles. Grenada has a population of about
100,000, and is 21 miles long and 12 miles wide. Cascading rivers,
lush rainforests, centuries-old spice plantations, rum distilleries
and the sulphur ponds vie for any visitor’s attention.
Grenada has a great deal to offer its visitors in terms of hiking,
exploring, sailing, diving and much more. |

Bonaire:
Come explore the kunuku, their Caribbean style outback terrain
unique to the Dutch Antilles where you will find prickly cacti.
Along the shoreline keep watch for flocks of pink flamingos.
Bonaire is a small island located in the southern Caribbean
known for its pioneering role in the preservation of nature,
in particular the preservation of the marine environment, and
for its excellent scuba, snorkeling and windsurfing among other
things. Kayak in the mangroves, the gentle bay or venture out
into the open ocean for a real challenge. Enjoy the nature of
the land. |

Aruba:
Bonbini, in our native language of Papiamento, means "Welcome".
Welcome to Aruba. The word is ours. But we like to think the
meaning is universal. Our beaches curve like an Aruban smile
along the western shores, soft and white and fringed with palm
trees, sloping gently toward the calm transparent turquoise
of the Caribbean. From the Dutch colonial architecture of Oranjestad
to the windswept desert landscapes of the arid interior, this
sunny island invites exploration. |
