Explore a chain of emerald isles... cascading waterfalls, rainforests, volcanoes, miles of beaches... contrasted with quaint sisewalk cafes and duty-free shopping.

Antigua
With 365 idyllic beaches–one for each day of the year–Antigua is the water sports mecca of the Caribbean. Wind surfers, sailors, divers, and sun-seekers love this island of rolling hills and wide sweeping bays. You’ll feel the legacy of the British as you stroll along the boardwalk to Redcliffe Quay, a historic promenade of restored town homes and stone warehouses that have been converted into brightly painted cafes, shops, and restaurants. The Caribbean pulse is palpable everywhere.

Dominica
People say that the ‘Nature Island’ is the only Caribbean landmass that Columbus would recognize today. Virgin rainforests stand proud and tall ... Untamed rivers run wild ... Hundreds of waterfalls cascade from glorious heights where some 160 species of birds fill the forest with song and color. Lucky for us, many of Dominica’s eco-sensitive tourist activities have been integrated into the lives of the locals–a nice change from the traditional tourist kitsch and glitzy resorts found on other islands.

Iles des Saints
The Saints are an archipelago of eight volcanic islets–tropical hideaways scalloped by white sandy beaches and sheltered coves. The 17th century Fort Napoleon is an impressive structure with fine views over the island and surrounding seas. A charming and seductive atmosphere pervades the place. It’s enough to make you want to buy your dream villa and leave the world behind.

Nevis
Almost completely circular, Nevis’ green slopes rise in sweeping curves to the central and only summit. From a distance, Nevis looks like a snow-capped mountain, but it’s just clouds and mist hovering around Nevis Peak. Charlestown is a well-preserved village: plantation estates and eighteenth century buildings decorated with gingerbread trim tell the story of a bygone era. An interesting zoning law states that no buildings may be taller than the palm trees. We love that!
