Scuba & Snorkeling
The clearest water for these activities is generally found around
those islands without rivers or steep hills to create runoff. Add
underwater features, such as coral reefs and walls or sub-
merged shipwrecks, and you have a diver's paradise. Among
the best dive destinations in the Caribbean are the Turks and
Caicos, the Cayman Islands, and Bonaire.
Golf
Golf courses are popping up like hibiscus blossoms throughout
the region. The top choices are Puerto Rico and Jamaica, each
offering championship courses designed to keep even the most
dedicated golfer happy. You'll also find courses on St. Croix, St.
Thomas, Nevis, St. Kitts, Aruba, and Barbados.
Tennis
Top tennis facilities are available in resorts on Puerto Rico, Ja-
maica, Antigua, and St. Croix.
Windsurfing
Windsurfers will find excellents spots in these warm waters.
Aruba is the top windsurfing destination in the Caribbean due
to ever-present trade winds. Puerto Rico also offers windsurfing
(taught by a former member of the US Olympic Team) as well as
the BVI, home of an annual international tournament.
