The Caribbean might not be on the top of your bucket list the way that, say, the Great Wall is, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some heart-stoppingly pretty places you should want to see there. Beaches are the name of the game there, and if the idea of a beach makes you want to cry with happiness right about now, here are 11 you’ll do anything to get to soonest.
Flamands, St. Barts
Yes, St. Barts is home to some of the best beaches in the Caribbean–including Gouverneur, Colombier, and Saline–but this one takes the cake.
It’s long and walkable, has some shady trees, fine sand, and crisp blue water. Hands down winner.
Trunk Bay, St. John
This bay was donated by Laurence Rockefeller to the National Parks Service, making it part of the Virgin Islands National Park. The 225-yard-long underwater snorkeling trail is pretty awesome, too.
Crane Beach, Barbados
It’s been named one of the best beaches in the world and there’s a good reason why: It’s large, it’s really pretty and there are great waves. ‘Nuff said.
Barbuda, Antigua’s relatively undiscovered sister island, has some of the most gorgeously smooth sand we’ve ever seen. Plus there’s practically no one there, so you’ll have it all to yourself.
The picturesque Grand Anse Beach in Grenada was not included. #inaccuratelist
Well I suppose you will have to come and see for yourself. Grand Anse Beach belong on that list.
