Its two main streets, Frontstreet and Backstreet, are bustling thoroughfares lined with shops and restaurants.
Feb 27 British Virgin Islands
Rising up like green gemstones out of the sparkling deep blue sea, the British Virgin Islands are known as the "cruising capital of the Caribbean." With hundreds of secret bays and hidden coves, they've been a haven for seafarers for centuries.

Or they sail through to spend days as castaways on forgotten cays. The British Virgin Islands is the water sports capital of the Caribbean. The British Virgin Islands hold many more attractions. Anegada is a favorite spot for divers and fishermen. Sparkling sandy bays beneath striking cliffs are favorite stopping-off points for beach picnics or deserted beaches to soak up the sun or lie in the shade. Shady mountain trails can be hiked.

Mar 1 Anguilla
The beaches in Anguilla are some of the most beautiful and impressive, anywhere. The unsuspecting visitor is speechless on first glimpse. Thus, more and more Europeans, Americans and Canadians are being lured to the lovely shores of this special little Caribbean isle.
Mar 2 St. Kitts
St. Kitts remains uncrowded and unspoiled, famous around the world for excellent preservation of ecosystems. Take advantage of tours through lava formations, tropical forest areas, and seaside lagoons. Boating tours and scuba diving expeditions are also favorite activities. Plantation homes have been transformed into grand, intimate inns. Quaint shopping areas and beautiful Colonial architecture draw visitors to tiny towns. Spectacular Mount Liamuiga, a dormant volcano at the island's center, dominates the landscape. Hike through the dense tropical forest of central slopes and tramp across the lava formations. Black, white and golden sand beaches invite lounging and sipping frozen drinks. Home to the Federation's capital city, Basseterre, St Kitts is known for its well-preserved, picturesque colonial structures. Due to the sunken vessels, virgin reefs and other submerged natural wonders, dive enthusiasts are now discovering that beauty runs deep. St. Kitts is best known for its relaxed atmosphere and stunning natural beauty.
Mar 3 St. Barthelemy
St. Barthélemy, also known as St. Barts, is a duty-free port, and there are enough bargains to set aside time for shopping, particularly for top-quality "name" merchandise. There is delicately executed straw work unique to St. Barts, braided and woven of lantana palm, by women of Corossol and Colombier. Other locally crafted products include sandals and shell jewelry sold in Gustavia, as well as paintings and lithographs by island artists. For an in-town nightcap and a romantic view, there's luxurious Carl Gustaf overlooking the harbor. The town has quite a few special places that attract interesting dinner crowds. Dining has become a stellar attraction of St. Barts. Renowned chefs from France and U.S. frequently visit the island, many of them open restaurants, and some even teach. Young chefs who have trained in France's greatest restaurants choose to work in St. Barts and have made the island a gastronomic showcase. Most restaurants are small but offer something special in food, setting, or atmosphere. There are 14 beaches, all blessed with gleaming white sand.
Mar 4 Antigua
With a beach for each day of the year, Antigua is a water-lover's delight. For shopping and feasting on local seafood, the capital city of St. John's offers many choices on Redcliffe Quay. Or motor around the coast to historic English Harbour, a superb restoration of the 18th century dockyard where Admiral Lord Nelson once ruled the British fleet.
