Not all the Caribbean islands are same, they have many differences but most of the islands offer plenty things to see and do for all visitors. When you spend your hard earned money for your family vacation then it is very important to choose the perfect destination. If you are a beach lover then the islands of Dominica and Saba are the best options.

If you are looking for a peaceful vacation, then choose Parrot Cay which is a private island in the northern Caribbean with 1000 unspoiled acres including a long beach. It has finest restaurant, the most luxurious spa and a collection of private villas.

Dominica is called the nature island of the Caribbean and as well as this island Jamaica, St John and St Lucia are wonderful islands for photography and nature lovers.

Jamaica is the largest island and one of the most beautiful islands in the caribbean, it offers many points of interest, however you should be careful in choosing which part of Jamaica to visit. English is spoken in the resort areas and Spanish is required to get into the Dominican countryside.

And island of Nevis is very popular for its natural beauty and a perfect place for family vacations. It offers a great kid program and many activities can be found for all ages.

Hope this will give you an idea to choose a perfect Caribbean island for your family vacation, have a great trip!!!

A nice place to visit is the British Virgin Islands they are a chain of 60 island and cays. You can also look in to WanderlustCharters.com, Wanderlust is a sailing yacht that you can find accommodation on board as well, they also tour you to the various hot spots.

Belize is a good place in the Caribbeab to go for a family vacation as well. There are a number of rainforest tours there such as Bird-watching,Rainforest ecology and a archeoligical tour of the Chan Chich area. They also have horseback riding activities there so it would provide a great time for your kids. And this is one of the perfect places in the Caribbean to go scuba divingLuxury link can give other accommodations in Belize as well as other Caribbean islands.

My favorite island is Dominica its called the "nature island" and for good reason active volcanos, beaches, wildlife, waterfalls, and lush green forests. The diving in Dominica is amazing as well.

Hmm..It seems like nobody mentioned the Grand Cayman Islands. There is so much to do there including coral reef diving, snorkeling, and scuba diving. But what I think is the best thing about the Grand Cayman islands is the beaches. The Seven Mile Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. It is quite a sight.
