Bermuda Travel Forum

Good Day,

My wife and I are thinking of doing a warm weather vacation for the first time and considering the Caribbean. We are from Minneapolis. Minnesota so we are really looking forward to having a sunny vacation to look forward to (that sounds kind of redundant doesn't it?).

Of course, a quick look at travel sites let's me know that there is ton of islands to choose from. I'm having a hard time telling them apart but I'm sure their are differences. I'm sure some are better than others and some are likely better for different type of people and what they like to do.

Does anyone know of a website or websites that does a good job of breaking down the types of travelers that would enjoy the different types of islands?

I guess our profile is that we want the beautiful beach and weather but not so much the party town thing. We want some shopping but more likely things to see and do culturally. We like muesems and history and natural wonders as well.

Any hints or especially websites would be much appreciated. Thanks!

HI
You don't mention what month you are planning on travelling , if it's winter Bermuda stays quite chilly until May...

We've been to most of the islands and a favorite for us is St Lucia. The people are so frinedly and it's a great island to rent a jeep to explore on your own.We spent three weeks there last winter and it has everything. Great weather, beaches and so much to see...rainforest, whale and turtle watching, many beautiful waterfalls and even a volcanic crater . Here is a link http://www.geographia.com/st-lucia/

Good luck

Cuba has it all with fantastic history, museums and a top 10 beach but being a US citizen creates a problem. Have you considered the Mayan Riviera? Great beaches, culture and a good price at one of their all-inclusive resorts? Have a great vacation where ever you decide to go!
Cheers,
