You can also do typical island activities such as lounging on the beach and snorkeling.

Bahamas

The Bahamas is known for its white-sand beaches and friendly locals as well as being super close (less than 200 miles) to Florida, making it an easily accessible destination.

There are over 700 islands and cays which make up the Bahamas. Many of those islands were severely damaged by Hurricane Dorian in September 2019 but there are 14 islands (Nassau and Paradise Island included) that are undamaged.

Enjoy delicious food and tasty rum while visiting this destination. You can also swim with spotted pigs, go surfing or get an Ayurvedic massage.

Whatever you choose to do in the Bahamas — you’re guaranteed to have a great time.

Montserrat

This island is very calm and is the epitome of a Caribbean getaway. The island has a population of fewer than 6,000 people after volcanic eruptions in the 1990s.

If you love nature, you’ll absolutely adore the lush rainforest of Montserrat. Visiting Montserrat’s National Trust Botanical Gardens is a must as well as the Montserrat Observatory for breathtaking views.

St. Barth’s

The wealthy and famous have been vacationing in St. Barth’s for years but so can you! Visit the capital city Gustavia of shopping, great restaurants, and people watching.

Relax on Colombier Beach but be aware that you can only access the beach by boat or on foot.

Mexico

Valladolid, Yucatán

Known as the “Capital of the Mayan east”, Valladolid is the second-largest city in the Yucatán State.

Take a stroll through the city and you’ll be taken back to the 19th-century with its colonial architecture and a historic downtown quarter.

Dine at one of the restaurants while strolling to try local dishes such as papadzules (similar to a vegetarian enchilada and covered with a sauce made using pumpkin seeds), marquesitas (crispy pancakes stuffed with cheese and chocolate).

The best part of Guatemala is the kind and friendly locals who will make you feel more than welcome.

San Jose, Costa Rica

The capital city of Costa Rica is an underrated mecca for foodies. Not only is the food impeccable in San Jose, but it’s incredibly eco-friendly. In fact, Costa Rica won the United Nations 2019 Champions of the Earth award — the highest environmental honor by the United Nations. The country is on track to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and by 2030, it will have 100% renewable electricity.

Chefs in Costa Rica are now using all of the produce grown in the country, resulting in a culinary renaissance.

San Jose has lots of up-and-coming neighborhoods where you’ll find indigenous foods made only with the freshest ingredients.
