The Best Beaches Among The Caribbean Islands

June 29, 2023
2023-06-29
The beaches in the Caribbean are unlike any other! Although there are many other parts of the world that are known for their stunning coasts, this region is just something else. They're beautiful, sure, but they're also idyllic, charming, many are unspoiled and largely untouched, and the ecosystems that live there are pretty fascinating too. Rest assured that if you ever get to see the likes of Bávaro Beach in The Dominican Republic, Flamingo Beach in Aruba, or even Grand Cul-de-Sac Beach in Saint Barthélemy in person, all the other beaches in the world might not do it for you anymore!

The Best Beaches Among The Caribbean Islands


Bávaro Beach in The Dominican Republic

Bávaro Beach is the archetypal Caribbean beach. Located in Punta Cana, one of the most beloved coastal towns in the Dominican Republic, it has everything you'd want and need in such a place. A white sandy shoreline? Check! Beautiful turquoise waters? Check! Pine trees and beach huts? Check! It also helps that Bávaro Beach is the biggest beach in the Caribbean, stretching up to 30 miles (48 kilometers) of tropical goodness. Lined with high-class resorts and luxury homes, it's no wonder this place is so popular!

Pigeon Point Beach in Trinidad & Tobago

Trinidad and Tobago doesn't get enough recognition for the paradise that they are! Although the dual island's coastlines are fairly famous, Trinidad's colorful Carnivale culture gets most of the attention. Tobago, on the other hand, is a bit more underrated. Perhaps when more people discover Pigeon Point Beach will the island finally get the recognition it deserves. It's a fairly secluded shoreline with sand and seas that are as clear as day. The aquamarine shades are so stunning too!

Grand Cul-de-Sac Beach in Saint Barthélemy

There are so many great beaches in Saint Barthélemy that it's almost impossible to choose just one. So perhaps it's best to focus on the most famous of the bunch: Grand Cul-de-Sac Beach. Located on the northeastern edge of the island, it's the ultimate holiday destination. Not only because it's a beautiful beach, but there are lots to do as well. Apart from the usual swimming and sun-tanning, you can go paddleboarding, kayaking, windsurfing, and scuba diving here too.

Grand Anse Beach in Grenada

Picture the perfect Caribbean beach. Does it have silky white sand that's so soft, you almost never want to leave? Does it have such clear azure waters, they almost look like a paintbrush was dipped in it? And is it surrounded by sweeping landscapes as far as the eye can see? Then perhaps you're picturing Grand Anse Beach in Grenada! This two-mile coastline is so beautiful, it's worth posting about in a travel inspo Instagram account. And arguably the best part is that it strikes the right balance between commercial activity (resorts, bars, water sports, etc.) and tropical serenity.

Labadee Beach in Haiti

Haiti's Labadee Beach is undoubtedly one of the best beaches in the Caribbean. Though it's land that's leased out to Royal Caribbean Cruises, which means you have to book a cruise to get here. Is it worth it? You bet it is! Beyond the cruise itself, getting to see this shoreline in person will be unforgettable. The beach itself is as beguiling as ever, complete with white sand, jewel-tone waters, and lots of sunshine. Moreover, the area is home to many other attractions. They include the Arawak Aqua Park, which is perfect for some family fun.

Caracas Beach in Puerto Rico

On Puerto Rico's Isla de Vieques, Caracas Beach is the ultimate tropical standout. Located within a Natural Wildlife Reserve, there are no luxury resorts or crowded hotels to disrupt its coastal serenity. The place still draws a lot of people, sure, but it rarely gets so loud and crowded here that it'll ruin your beach day. You can still go as far as you can to score a fairly quiet spot for just you and your company. And with such stunning scenery to surround you, rest assured that all your efforts will be worth it!

Brownes Beach in Barbados

If someone were to argue that the beaches in the Mediterranean trumps those in the Caribbean, Barbados's Brownes Beach is one of the best examples to counter their claim. You'd be hard-pressed to find a beach as clean and clear as this one in Europe (or anywhere else, for that matter!). And the shoreline is so soft, no pillow or mattress will ever do it for you anymore after lying down here. There's also the underwater ecosystem too. Dive into the Caribbean Sea from Brownes Beach and discover the fascinating creatures that live here.

Varadero Beach in Cuba

Think what you want about Cuba but you can't deny that it has its fair share of exquisite coastlines. Not the least of which is Varadero Beach. Located in the Matanzas province, it's the typical serene shoreline with azure waters, white sand, and captivating scenery. But while it is typical of the Caribbean Island's tropical appeal, it has its own paradisical magic to offer too. Just ride a glass-floored boat on these clear waters and you'll instantly realize why Varadero Beach made it unto this list!

Flamingo Beach in Aruba

Movies, TV series, and other media probably gave you an impression of the Caribbean as this lively, electric, and colorful place. The home of Carnivale, Reggaeaton, and more, it's easy to get this sort of idea about the subcontinent. And while the entire subcontinent doesn't necessarily embody that, Aruba's Flamingo Beach does. You won't find any other coastline where these fine-feathered friends hang out. Their bright pink vibrancy adds another layer to the Caribbean's tropical and whimsical appeal.

Pig Beach in The Bahamas

From flamingos to pigs, who knew the Caribbean understood the charming appeal of vacationing with these feathered or furry friends? Aruba's Flamingo Beach plays on the region's flamboyant reputation. But Pig Beach in the Bahamas? That's just a whole bundle of cuteness right there! These chubby critters are the only real natives of this Caribbean Island. Going here means you're in their territory, so isn't it only fitting that you swim and splash around with them? It'll definitely be a fun experience you won't soon forget!
