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.

Puerto Plata, the "Silver Coast" queen, is prized for cloud-shrouded peaks and gleaming beaches. Once plundered by pirates, it still invites you to storm the 16th-century Fortaleza San Felipe. Today it lures visitors with aged rum, cigars, and chocolate. Adventurers can ride to Pico Isabel de Torres (793 m/2,602 ft), off-road to Damajagua Waterfalls, or kite-surf, catamaran, and zip-line over the ocean. Save time for a beach club and coconut cocktails.

Between the Dominican Republic mainland and Samaná Peninsula, Cayo Levantado is a jade jewel in sapphire seas. Walk ivory-white sands, cross crystal waters to adventures, and explore nearby rainforests, waterfalls, secret coves, and scenic trails. Paddle mangroves, cruise to soft beaches, and enjoy colorful houses, fresh fish, and rum punch sunsets.

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.

Slip into a tranquil, tropical paradise of sparkling waters, coral reefs and powder white beaches. Switch off and slowly shop, swim, snorkel and sip within the peace of sand, sea and sky. Sink into a beachside boulder-forming pool at The Baths, admire spectacular villas scattered on the Great Mountain, sit back on a safari bus ride or sunbathe aboard a catamaran. Prepare to be mesmerised by this softly lit, sun-drenched heaven.

Experience Anguilla's blissfully quiet, laid-back island life: roam with wildlife, learn its quirky history, and explore Katouche Cave. Take a guided quad bike tour for a glimpse of island life, then sail across electric-blue seas to remote Little Bay, where jagged cliffs meet pristine sand. Kayak or paddleboard to secluded coves, and unwind with cocktails and butter-soaked grilled lobster at beach bars with the softest white sand underfoot.
