Jamaica
The Island of Jamaica is an icon in the Caribbean, a cultural and naturally beautiful wonder, which is one of the most hospitable you likely ever visit.
Although it’s one of the larger islands in the Caribbean, you’ll never be far away from one of the stunning white-sand beaches and the stunning ocean views. If you want to do more, then there is acres of rainforest, you could explore the peaks of the Blue Mountains or have a swim in Dunn’s River Falls.
It doesn’t stop there – you could swim with dolphins, bobsled down Mystic Mountain or kayak through the 300-acre hidden paradise of the White River Valley.
Jamaica also has a long-lasting connection to James Bond. Ian Fleming created the character from his villa GoldenEye, writing Casino Royale there in 1952 and has been used as a key location in both the book and the films.
