I love the beach.  What girl doesn’t?  Okay, I realize everyone may not love salt-water in their hair and sand in unknown places.  But it’s something I’ve learned to embrace and love.

However…

I’ve gotten kind of snooty particular when it comes to my beaches.  After spending an ample amount of time on 10+ Caribbean islands in my lifetime (not even talking about the Greek Island beaches I’ve been to, which are more-than amazing), an ocean full of seaweed and sand full of garbage just doesn’t cut it for me anymore.  Yes, I realize I am lucky to live on a coast and have beaches at my disposal (just a short 20-30 minutes away), but call me whatever you want, I just don’t enjoy these anymore.

With that in mind, and since the cold weather has gotten the better of me, let’s get on with the pictures.  

My favorite beaches of the Caribbean.

1. Cockleshell Beach, St. Kitts

2. Grand Turk

3. Punta Cana Bavaro

4. Morningstar Beach, St. Thomas

5. Coconut Court Beach, Barbados

6. Jalousie Beach, St. Lucia

7. Horseshoe Bay Beach, Bermuda

8. Forgotten, St. Martin

A few others I’d like to visit, cocktail in hand: Trunk Bay in St. John, Shoal Bay East in Anguilla, and Maracas in Trinidad.  I’ve heard there are just so many beautiful beaches and things to do in Trinidad and Tobago.  Also on my list: play with the flamingos in Aruba, photograph the colorful houses in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico, and learn how to sail on the Caribbean Sea.
Have you been to any of these?
Do you have any favorite beaches in the Caribbean?

    I didn't realize I was a beach person until I spent a week in Jamaica. Now, Have to have at least a weekend at a beach once a year.

      I've always been a beach person and always will be! Unless theres a ton of seaweed and the sand is gross!

    Sigh… I wish I was on one of those beaches right now. I need to put my toes in the ocean at least once each summer for it to count.

    I love the stark contrast of the tree-covered hills right next to the beach in your photo of Jalousie Beach! But they are all beautiful. Bring on the summer weather!

    These beaches look amazing! I'm bookmarking this link so I can come back to it for reference. I just began traveling through the Caribbean about 2 years ago. First Jamaica, then Puerto Rico. I have my eyes on Cuba, DR, Barbados and St. Lucia next. There are so many Islands and so many amazing beaches to explore. If only I had more money and more vacation time!Right now, My favorite beach is 7 mile beach in Negril. The water is crystal clear and calm as a swimming pool. I've never seen anything like it before in my life. I have pics of it in my personal blog here http://twoshotsofrum.blogspot.com/ It's definitely worth a visit. I think it would make your next beach list!:)-Daisy
