Me : only 4 :( St. Lucia Cuba Barbados Haiti & DR</font></font></font></font> |
not so many...
St. John St. Thomas Jost Van Dyke Tortola Puerto Rico Vieques Culebra some were only day trips my favorite is STJ, with JVD a very close second. for different reasons though. On my wish list: DR St.Vincent and the Grenadines Bequia Tortola again (only 2 days the first time) Anguilla and on, and on... |
Oi - let me try and count - but I have to preface by saying this was my parents favorite past time when I was growing up so this isn't all me on my own - but I remember all but one island...
Antigua Barbados Grenada Cancun - not really an island St. Lucia St. Kitts St. Martin Grand Cayman Martinique St. Croix Saba Anguilla Jamaica Trinidad Tobago I think that is it - whew 15 islands...but I only visite Saba and Trinidad on day trips... I am a lucky woman! Or I have my priorities straight - hehehe |
Not NEARLY as many as I would have thought with living on St. Eustatius for 13 years. I guess when you live in the Caribbean full time you prefer to go to Europe and other places for vacation. :)
-Saba -St. Maarten/St. Martin (that's a trip to "the city" for us) :) -St. Barth's -Anguilla -Puerto Rico -Jamiaca -St. Kitts -Landed on Nevis once |
Two actual Caribbean...
Grand Cayman Turks and Caicos The rest of my trips have been to (Hawaii & Mexico). |
I have to figure out how you do the color thing with the words...
St. John Cozumel Aruba Curacao St. Lucia Haiti Guadeloupe Martinique Peter Island Puerto Rico Grand Cayman/Little Cayman Grand Bahama Island (ok not in the Caribbean but it sure felt like it!) Jamaica (in 2 weeks 1/2! yes!) Turks & Caicos (in 9 1/2 weeks! double yes!) :-) |
BTW
I'll count Guyana, Belize and Bermuda as Caribbean Islands. :) shhh...don't tell the locals though! Wow! I'm impressed you guys! :) |
caribtraveler,
Check the "other" forum and you'll see a thread dealing with colours :) |
Thanks! Will do.
You think you're impressed? Wait till Blamona replies to this thread. She'll TRULY impress you. :-) |
Aruba and Anguilla are the only 2 Caribbean islands we've visited (been to a few others in Hawaii, Mexico, Martha's Vineyard) but we plan on continuing!

Caribtraveler, I have to answer now! 8-)
Bermuda, Grand Bahama, Turks and Caicos, (Provo, North, Middle, Grand Turk) Nassau/Paradise, Caymans, Jaimaca, Cozumel, Isla Mujeres, Abacos, Harbour Island, Exumas, Eleuthera, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Virgin islands (St.Croix, St Thomas, St John, tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, Cooper island, Peter island, Anegada) Anguilla, St. Martin, St. Bart's, Antigua, Barbados, St. Vincent (and Bequia, Mustique, Palm, Union, Mayreau, Canouan, tobago Cays, Petit St. Vincent) Grenada, Aruba. i feel like I missed some! It probably would have been easier to write where i haven't been. I need to write a book, The Caribbean's most perfect beach. :-) PS, i'm always happy to give an opinion! |
I have been to
St. John St. Thomas Peter Island Virgin Gorda (daytrip, but staying there in December and can't wait) Jost Van Dyke (daytrip) Cozumel St. Kitts (cruise) St. Barts (cruise) St. Martin (cruise) Antigua (cruise) Jamaica Puerto Rico Culebra Belize (not really an island but still Caribbean!) Not really Caribbean- Grand Bahama Island Bermuda There are so many more that I want to visit. I especially want to go to Anguilla and some of the southern Caribbean islands (especially St. Lucia and also the Grenadines) |
Puerto Rico
Jamaica St. Thomas St. Croix St. John Tortola Virgin Gorda Jost Van Dyke St. Maarten Norman Island Isla Mujeres Isla Contoy I am only 39, so I hope to hit every one of the Windward and Leewards, in addition to the Bahamian chain. |

bahamas (paradise island) st thomas st john virgin gorda outside of the caribbean: bora bora papeete maui kauai nice (not an island though...) fun thread, jagirl! :) |
JAGIRL: Question for you about Ziggy Marley. I'm curious to know what is generally thought of him in Jamaica.
I just bought his new CD "Love is my religion" to get me in the mood for our upcoming trip to Jamaica... like I really need something to get me in the mood... :-) He's certainly not his dad (but then again, who is?!), but his CD is pretty good. There are a couple of songs on it that I just love. I think it was last year that I bought his brother's CD, Damian Marley. I don't remember being impressed because I listened to it once and it's been sitting there since then. Is Ziggy really popular in Jamaica? Do they think he's good? Better than Damian? And that no one will ever be like Marley Senior (I can't imagine..)? Thanks. |
Only one! X( St. John, but I'm off to a good start! :-d
