Book Description

Every vacation in the Caribbean is the trip of a lifetime, and 100 Things to Do in the Caribbean Before You Die is your guide to creating timeless memories wherever you are traveling in the islands. You’ll discover everything “irie” about the unique food, culture, music, and vibes of each destination in the Caribbean. You’ll “lime” like a local in Barbados’ friendly rum shops, spice up your Jamaica trip at the island’s best jerk shacks, and follow Puerto Rico’s Ruta de Lechón to the most savory roast pork in the world. Get into vacation mode by joining a pirate invasion in the Cayman Islands, or baring it all on the most notorious party boat in the British Virgin Islands. Fill your “bucket list” with experiences like swimming with pigs in the Bahamas and whale sharks in Mexico, island-hopping on a charter yacht, exploring the haunting ruins of towns buried by volcanoes, and cruising the streets of Havana in a '50s-vintage classic Chevy. And of course you’ll meet the warm and welcoming people who bring the Caribbean to life: Carnival dancers in Trinidad, the Kuna tribe of the San Blas Islands of Panama, Anguilla singer and living legend Bankie Banx at his handmade Dune Preserve bar, and countless others. Come along with local author and travel writer Bob Curley for an insider’s perspective on the many island experiences he’s enjoyed. From the pink sand beaches of Bermuda to the tops of the Piton mountains in St. Lucia, 100 Things to Do in the Caribbean Before You Die will take you to the very best of the islands, from the well-worn tourist path to unexpected and extraordinary, “only in the Caribbean” moments.
