When you think of the Caribbean, the first things that come to mind are most likely turquoise waters, relaxed vibes and swaying palm trees. But there’s a lot more to a trip to this part of the world than lazing around on a sunlounger, taking in the views and sipping exotic cocktails. The Caribbean offers a huge variety of other tempting activities, from windsurfing and waterskiing, to scuba diving and snorkelling to see some of the most beautiful, vividly coloured coral reefs imaginable. Here are a few of the must-try activities you can enjoy.
Snorkelling
Snorkelling offers one of the most magical and easily accessible ways of experiencing the Caribbean’s underwater world – crystal-clear seas, breathtaking coral gardens and dazzling tropical fish. For some of the Caribbean’s best snorkelling, look to the Exumas in the Bahamas, Molinere Bay in Grenada with its underwater sculpture park, or pretty much anywhere along the coast of Antigua – the island is almost entirely circled by reefs. But nothing beats snorkelling in the beautiful waters around Curaçao, where you can find the Curaçao National Marine Park, a snorkeller’s paradise. Snorkelling is also available to all-inclusive holidaymakers at all Sandals Resorts, including Sandals Grenada, Sandals Emerald Bay and Sandals Royal Curaҫao.
