For the less adventurous, leisure options are abound; you can suntan on serene beaches, play a round of golf on a fabulous course or sip a cocktail while watching the red Caribbean sun set over the vast horizon. This is also a prime hiking region, full of tropical forests and trails and splashed with thousands of endemic wildlife species. Moreover, the cultural fabric of the Caribbean region is an interesting patchwork of colourful traditions. And then there are all those too familiar Caribbean tourist attractions that range from pristine coastlines of West Indies to extraordinary sceneries of Puerto Rico, from the flashy markets of Jamaica to the exotic landscape of Trinidad and Tobago. In short, the variety of the Caribbean’s natural world is rich, endless – and yours to explore. The Caribbean, also often referred to as the Antillen or the West Indies, is a region that denotes the existence of numerous islands and countries over and around the Caribbean Sea. More specifically, it encompasses the terrain that is situated above the Caribbean Plate. A conglomeration of 7,000 islands, islets, reefs and cayes, the Caribbean islands are scattered around the sea, with Mexico on the north to Venezuela of South America.
