Vibrant, culturally rich and visually stunning – the islands of the Caribbean are like nowhere else on Earth. From cocktails to coral reefs, hiking to heritage, they offer something for all tastes and tempos. Here are seven unmissable highlights of the Caribbean.

Enjoy sunset cocktails on the white sand beaches of Barbados or Jamaica
Pristine beaches and perfect sunsets go hand in hand in the Caribbean – as do perfectly made cocktails to enjoy them with. Just pick your favourite beach – be it along the platinum coast of Barbados, or at the heart of the rich, reggae-infused warmth of Jamaica – add a classic mojito or piña colada (cocktails are available to all-inclusive holidaymakers at Sandals Resorts), and watch the sun sink into the limitless blue horizon. Ready to take the sunset experience one step further? At some of its luxury, all-inclusive Jamaica resorts, Sandals has over-water bars, complete with broad hammocks for lazing just above the gently lapping water.
