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.
