How many do you know?
The Caribbean is a group of islands in the Caribbean Sea to the east of North America, simply known to many as paradise!


A long-time favourite of holidaymakers from all over the world, ALL of the islands offer gorgeous sandy beaches with clear blue waters.

The Caribbean is known as the Island Countries – because the Caribbean isn’t a country itself, it is actually made up of thousands of islands (as many as 7000) – of which there are 26 countries.
