Jamaica
From the glorious glow of its sunsets, to the unique and engaging ways of its people, its alluring white sandy beaches, lush green mountains and sparkling waterfalls. The beauty of this island paradise has drawn visitors for centuries.
The Jamaican people are heavily reliant on tourism for their living. Fortunately, they have plenty to offer. This tiny island was home to the one and only Bob Marley. It was here that Ian Fleming wrote his James Bond novels. The clear waters and colourful reefs are perfect for scuba diving or snorkeling. There are fascinating historical sites such as plantations and old Georgian architecture. Everyone will be able to savour the spirit of Jamaica, which is as rich as the lilt of the local patois and the rhythms of the reggae music for which the island is famous.
ARUBA
Aruba is the smallest and most Western island of the Dutch Antilles, which, known locally as the ABCs, also include Bonaire and Curaçao. Aruba is a popular cruise destination. The beaches are so perfect they’re almost cliched: miles of white, sandy beaches, turquoise waters and the requisite year-round sun. Over a million visitors arrive on this tiny island each year, enticed by its luxury resorts, first-class restaurants, 24-hour casinos and excellent watersport facilities.
Most visitors stay either in the capital, Oranjestad, or just to the north in one of the many resort complexes on Eagle and Palm beaches. The remainder of the island is much less developed and in the arid interior there is nothing more substantial than cacti and divi-divi trees, contorted by the consistently strong trade winds. For those who need more than sunbathing to get their kicks, there are plenty of activities available on the island. There is good diving and snorkelling along the reef on the protected leeward coast and the windsurfing is excellent a little further north at Fisherman’s Hut. Deep-sea fishing can also be arranged through many of the hotel
