Seven Mile Beach, Cayman Islands

Located on the western side of Grand Cayman, Seven Mile Beach attracts visitors with its picturesque views of sparkling waters and coral sands. Spend your days relaxing and soaking up the rays on the beach; walking along the shoreline; and engaging in watersports like paddleboarding, parasailing and jet skiing. Go deep diving into the gorgeous waters with snorkeling and scuba expeditions around Cemetery Reef to get up close with unique marine life. Only a few steps away from the beach, The Westin Grand Cayman Seven Mile Beach Resort & Spa offers one-of-a-kind views, stunning amenities, restaurants and much more.

 

Cockleshell Bay, St. Kitts

No trip to St. Kitts is complete without a visit to Cockleshell Bay. This secluded stretch of powder-white sand offers stunning views of sister island, Nevis. Water sports lovers will thrive with a wide variety of activities like diving, surfing, snorkeling and beach volleyball. Restaurants and grills throughout the island offer an authentic Caribbean mix between fine dining and good ol’ reggae-style barbeque.

The island only welcomes 14 couples to the island at a time, guaranteeing each couple enjoys a private beach to picnic at every other day of their stay. Travelers can also snorkel, scuba dive, kayak and more throughout their stay.

 

Montego Bay, Jamaica

Montego Bay, Jamaica, features a ton of incredible beaches on the island, but the best one is the private one at The Tryall Club. The luxury, all-villa rental community offers private stays and seclusion from crowds. Ocean lovers can snorkel in the crystal-clear waters and see lots of colorful fish like wrasse, parrotfish, butterflyfish and chromis. If snorkeling isn’t your thing, head to the water sports facility for kayaking or paddleboarding.
