Planning a trip to the Caribbean can sometimes call for a lot of research. You have to decide what island to visit, find out what airlines fly to the destination, finalise where you are going to stay, and plan the activities that you want to do. Although it can be exciting to think about chilling in the Caribbean, it can be a task just trying to settle on one country to visit.
One of the ways that you can decide where to visit is to look for Caribbean videos on YouTube. This is an excellent strategy to use when researching the best destinations in the Caribbean. When searching for videos, first look for general videos that highlight the best of the Caribbean. Then based on the destinations highlighted, you can narrow down your list to three or four Caribbean countries.
For example, the Wonderliv Travel video on the Best Caribbean Islands to visit, looks at ten of the best islands to visit in the Caribbean. On the list are Jamaica, Turks and Caicos Islands, St. Lucia, Antigua and Barbuda, Cuba, Aruba, US Virgin Islands, Dominican Republic, Bahamas and Puerto Rico. For each destination, the narrator shares usual information, must-visit places, and top activities. attributes and activities.
