Quiet Caribbean breaks: Bequia is a slice of bliss

Mail Online: "Bequia is my favourite small Caribbean island, but over the years I have never found my favourite place to stay there.

I do have strict requirements. I don't like to be right on a beach as the sound of the waves keeps me awake, though I know it is a sound most normal people love. I don't want too many steps with my poor knee. And I don't want to be inland, for surely the point of being in the Caribbean is to be able to get straight out of bed and run into the sea.]"

Forbes   I recently spent a week in  Turks and Caicos , my first time out of the country since the pandemic hit. Like many Caribbean countries, Turks and Caicos rely  almost entirely on tourism  to power their economy, so they’re desperate for travelers to return. I’m happy to report that these beautiful beaches felt like an escape from the despair of this global pandemic, and here’s how they are keeping travelers safe.

Do you have a favorite Caribbean getaway?

Still Traveling : "As I trudged through the rain recently, a friend diverted me from cold, wet thoughts with news that she was planning a trip to Aruba in a few weeks. I’ve never been to this small island just off the coast of South America, but the idea of white beach sand and warm Caribbean breezes were enough to push soaked clothes and flash flood warnings to the recesses of my mind – at least temporarily."
