Find the best beaches in the Caribbean?

When you think 'Caribbean,' you probably think 'beach.' This region of the world has been blessed with some of the most spectacular stretches of sun-kissed sand in the world. Trying to pick the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean is almost impossible as nearly every edge of the more than 7,000 islands, reefs and cays is idyllic. But with so much variety, it can be difficult to pick which sandy strips to visit first.



1. Cayman Islands

It's hard to top Grand Cayman's Seven Mile Beach with chalky sand and warm waves and is nothing short of spectacular. There are other enviable beaches along the Cayman Islands but why bother going somewhere else when this stretch is perfect. Gorgeous barrier reefs call to divers as the rum punch calls to the beach bums. Honeymooners hike through the 200-year-old Mastic Trail as parents take their children for interactive swims at Stingray City. Whichever way you choose to mellow out, the Cayman Islands have something for you. The Caymans are an archipelago of three islands lying 90 miles south of Cuba. The largest, Grand Cayman, is full of all-inclusive resorts, perfect for those who prefer pre-planned itineraries and don't mind the crowds. For easygoing vacationers, the less-traveled Cayman Brac and Little Cayman offer some of the best diving in the Caribbean.


2. St Barts

There's no doubt that the French Caribbean island of St. Barthélemy is in vogue with the moneyed set and oftentimes out-of-reach for the middle class but you can enjoy the beaches for free. There are 22 shorelines ranging from sublime Baie de St-Jean to remote Anse a Colombier to risqué Anse de Grande Saline. But it's far from snooty and more accessible than you might think. Careful and early planning will ensure that your getaway here is priced on par with other Caribbean isles. Fortunately, St. Barts' spine-tingling beaches are all free to languish upon. If you're looking for an island with exciting nightlife and an abundance of away-from- the-shore activities, it’s not here so check out Barts' cousins Martinique or St. Martin for more diversions. If you're looking for a Euro-themed utopia with plenty of shoreline to fulfill a Robinson Crusoe fantasy this is it.
