Miami and South Beach blend iconic movie backdrops with Latin American culture: Art Deco streets, Wynwood's murals, and Little Havana's café cortadito, sugarcane juice, beer, ice cream, dominoes, cigars, and politics. Add salsa, designer shopping, speedboats, and the Everglades for rare wildlife.

Experience the US Virgin Islands' mix of heritage and island charm: sparkly St. Thomas has a flawless capital with local culture, boutiques, Danish street names, pirate lore, historic landmarks, cable-car views, and Frenchtown's restaurants. Ferry to St. John for scenic beauty, diamond-sand beaches, clear blue water, and forest hikes. Caribbean warmth, Danish roots, and American influence make this a unique culture clash.

An adrenaline rush awaits. Swim with stingrays. Zip-line through lush forests. Walk across a gorge on a scenic suspension bridge. Sip excellent aged rums. Taste the island with a chef. Or stroll St. John's old town to tour cottages laden with cheerful fretwork. Explore British forts atop Shirley Heights and Goat Hill. Then rest and rejuvenate at one of the snow-white beaches.

A tropical utopia in the British Virgin Islands: soaring peaks for climbing, waves for surfing, wrecks for snorkelling, and cocktails with local rum. Around Road Town are brightly coloured colonial-era buildings; try Pusser's Painkiller Bar, then head to Sage Mountain. Zip-line, dive coral lagoons, 4x4 jungle trails, relax on postcard-perfect beaches, or sail by catamaran to uninhabited islands.

Formed by volcanoes, St Kitts has rich, fertile soil and lush rainforest. Hike Mount Liamuiga to its mile-wide crater, or descend to smell the sulphur. Try a scenic train ride, sailing, cooking class, sky-safari zip-line, or batik workshop. Visit sugarcane plantations, the Narrows, and UNESCO Brimstone Hill Fortress for island views. Small in size, big on charm.

Explore America's oldest city for Caribbean history, Spanish culture, and the American dream. Wander Old San Juan's alleys past centuries-old forts and colorful colonial buildings. Learn to move to salsa and reggae, shop boho streets or luxe boutiques for artisan goods, designer pieces, and hand-rolled cigars. Enjoy world-class surfing, a tropical rainforest, a private rum cocktail tasting, and empanadas. End on beautiful beaches with crystal-clear water and maybe one last rum cocktail.
