Dreaming of Bermuda? Think pink and green. Pink for the soft pastel shades that wash this 22-square-mile island, and green for the colour of money that Bermuda's offshore banking and insurance sectors generate (though in reality the island's currency is as colourful as its British founders). Bermuda is too far north - 600 miles due East of Cape Hattaras in North Carolina - to be considered geographically part of the Caribbean.
Here is fun in the sun you can take all the way to the hundreds of banks in this offshore tax haven. Comprising three islands and a population just over 30,000, the Cayman Islands were the setting for the hit Tom Cruise film: The Firm. Diving is big in the Caymans. In fact, treasure hunter and expert diver Herbert Humphreys is headquartered in the island capital of George Town.
In its British Empire days, Barbados was known as Little England. It was the first colony to declare war in 1939 and cheered Britons with a cable that read: "Don't worry. Little England is with you." Today, the island is independent but still cherishes Anglo-Saxon civility, cricket and high tea. After 350 years of colonization, Britain has left its mark and added much to the beguiling charm of "Little England in the Tropics."
Enjoy Go Go on Caribbean..
