Our favourite destinations in the Caribbean & Mexico

Don't worry if lazing on a beach isn't your idea of fun – the Caribbean has plenty more to offer. Enjoy a night at the races in Barbados, pick between cookery classes and casinos in Antigua, or throw caution to the wind with a quad bike ride through Jamaica's jungle.

The high season – December to mid-April – is an ideal time to pay a visit to the Caribbean for honeymooners, or anyone looking to escape the winter chill. It's also outside school holidays so your trip might be a little quieter. However, the non-stop sunshine means it's always the perfect time to book your Caribbean adventure.

Book Virgin Atlantic direct flights from London or Manchester and experience the tropical island vibe with a ticket to the Caribbean today.
