Best Beaches
 

Which islands have the bets beaches in the caribbean? I am looking for long, wide, white, powdery beaches. <BR><BR>I would appreciate any recommendations!

Felicia this question has been answered hundreds of times here.<BR>Nothing wrong with asking, but you can find many, many opinions in the archives. Try typing something like 'best beach' or 'St. John beach' in the search box.<BR><BR>The naswer to your question is: there is no unanimous choice. There are over a thousand beaches in the Caribbean, and some people value things that others don't.<BR><BR>Most common favorites are: St. John, Anguilla, Bahamas outer islands, Aruba, Grand Cayman.

Anguilla, for example, has 33 beaches, many of them world class & spectacular. It really depends on what else you want from an island (Anguilla has great restaurants but no shopping or night life whatsoever). Check out http://beaches.ai for a closer look.

The best long caribbean beaches (at least 2 miles long) are:<BR><BR>NEGRIL, Jamaica;<BR>7 Mile Beach, Grand Cayman;<BR>Grand Anse, Grenada;<BR>Palm/Eagle Beach, Aruba;<BR>Grace Bay, Provo;<BR>and the islands of Barbuda and Anegada.<BR><BR>St. John and Anguilla are worth mentioning since they have amazing beaches but not incredibly long.<BR><BR>

Try Cuelebra's Flamingo Beach. Ferry access from Fajardo. Mile long stretch. <BR><BR>Or Magen's Bay St. Thomas. Mile long cove.<BR><BR>Both beaches have white sand and are not crowed.

Negril, Jamaica<BR>Provo, Turks and Caicos - absolutely beautiful!

St. Martin HIGHLY RECOMMEND!- so many beaches, so many different atmospheres! Clothes ... no clothes... you choose - restaurants and shops - or total suclsion..... you choose - sooooo very many beaches - each unique - when I was there - clean and ready! And all avail within a short drive on fun roads through THE friendliest island I've been to...Easier to communicate on the Dutch side, if you don't speak french or have their $$$- I was unable to purchase items with USD - Many people I met who did speak french loved it on that side Win- Win situation!! Best wishes!!

Cuba has absolutely beautiful beaches and is very popular with Canadians.<BR>Varadero is particularly beatiful.
