This week,we will profile our three top-selling destinations in the Caribbean. All promise beautiful beaches, warm breezes and a laid-back atmosphere.
Jamaica is edged by pristine beaches and crowned by mountains that run across the center of the island. It has more all-inclusive resorts than any other destination; these properties wrap accommodations, meals, drinks and many activities in the upfront rate. Most of the main tourist areas are situated along the reef-protected shores of the north coast.
Negril is known for soft sands and calm waters that are perfect for scuba diving and snorkeling. Vacationers in Ocho Rios can visit one of Jamaica's most treasured attractions, 600-foot Dunn's River Falls, while those in Montego Bay can take a gentle float trip down the Martha Brae River. Runaway Bay is near the Green Grotto Caves, where guided subterranean tours take visitors to a lake 120 feet below the surface.
The Dominican Republic comprises the eastern two-thirds of the island of Hispaniola and boasts more than 800 miles of coastline, championship courses designed by golf legends, and a culture threaded with Spanish, French, Haitian and African influences.
Experienced divers can explore interesting shipwrecks, including two Spanish vessels that sank off the north coast in the 16th century. Nature lovers can head to the country's national parks -- see crocodiles at Isla Cabritos and flamingos at Jaragua, for example. In the evening, nightclubs pulse with the beat of merengue music.
About 15 miles north of Venezuela, Aruba features broad beaches, a cactus-studded interior and distinctive divi-divi trees bent by steady trade winds. The waters teem with marine life, providing excellent snorkeling opportunities. Scuba divers can explore the shipwrecked Antilla, a sunken German World War II freighter.
Tall, multicolored Dutch colonial homes with wooden doors make a picturesque sight in Oranjestad, the capital city. Nearby Eagle Beach is one of the island's longest beaches, stretching for 200 yards. Palm Beach is a true Caribbean playground, with major resorts, fine golden sand and clear water.

Hi John
Just wanted to say thank you again for the travel arrangements for my trip to Puerto Vallarta at the end of October. Barceló la Jolla de Mismaloya was a beautiful resort that I would definitely return to again.
Thank you, and hope to check in with you around this time next year to book another trip.
