The Caribbean offers so much more than just great beaches. Every island has unique traditions, flavors, and experiences beyond the typical resort stay. We empower families to move past cookie-cutter all-inclusives to see the real Caribbean — in a way that feels approachable with kids and also like a true vacation.
From reggae in Jamaica to French-Caribbean fusion in Saint Martin, the variety of cultures to discover in the Caribbean with kids is astounding. You’ll find varied local histories and European influences across the region, each adding its own twist to food, music, and way of life.
Of course, we won’t forget the classics that make Caribbean family travel a no-brainer: stunning blue sea, incredible underwater life, powdery beaches, perfect weather, and total relaxation with a cocktail in hand.
Whether you’re looking to unwind or seeking outdoor adventures like snorkeling, hiking, or zip-lining with your kids, the Caribbean has it all.
We took our 18 month old daughter to our favorite Caribbean island, along with 3 other families. She still keeps a photo from that first Caribbean trip in her room.
That first trip led to dozens of others over the next several years, as Mango Tree came to life. She’s now snorkeled with turtles, ziplined above beaches, learned to sail, and taken classes with local artisans.
The islands will always have a special place for our family, and we can’t help you find the right one for you and yours!
