Tough question.

I'll go with the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and St. Maarten.

ALL of the Caribbean lslands have their positive and their negative. If you've never been, I'd avise you to take a cruise that visits at least five islands, that way you get to experience quite a few and maybe you'll find a favorite.

Barbados is beautiful and you meet plenty of indigenous people. Turks and Caicos has beautiful beaches. However, St. Thomas is my favorite location because of the landscape. You can go hiking, and than snorkeling, its amazing. Curacao is beautiful too. However stay away from Aruba, which is not special at all.

Highly Favoured

All of the Caribbean islands have their uniqueness. Each of them are beautiful in their own way and the citizens will tell you that theirs is the best. It all depends also on what you are looking for. Best in terms of what.

As Jus Jaz said you can go on a caribbean cruise so that you can visit more than one island. Carnival Victory has a 7-day cruise leaving Barbados and going to 6 other islands. Alternatively you can eave from San Juan.

Nevertheless, I am from Barbados so I will not say that it is the best but would love you to come here.

Barbados is a coral island, pushed out of sea by volcanic activity in a far away time. On the West Coast of Barbados, coral shore beaches of fine white sand stretch along a blue-green sea. Coral reefs fringe the Barbados shoreline to provide excellent snorkeling and Scuba Diving. Along the East Coast a lively surf is blown briskly by the strong and constant trade winds and the waves pound against a rocky shore. The constant breeze of the trade winds gives Barbados a mild and pleasant tropical climate.

When you visit Barbados, you will see it is mostly a flat coral island with excellent beaches, but there are rolling hills and many deep ridges and gullies, with an interesting distribution of flora and fauna. Within the Barbados coral core there is a vast array of caves and underground lakes which provide an excellent supply of drinking water that is amongst the purest in the world. Geologically Barbados is unique, being actually two land masses that merged together over the years. This and other anomalies make this Caribbean Island quite phenomenal, and there are geological structures that you will find only in Barbados.

Barbados is a very beautiful island, with lots of art, activities, night life, music, history and some of the best restaurants to be found anywhere. But what makes Barbados even more special, and the reason why so many visitors keep returning to the island year after year, is the people. Barbadians, called Bajans, are warm and friendly souls, always ready to greet you with a sincere smile. Barbadians make you feel welcome and special, in this lovely Caribbean Island. You will feel its your home and will want to come back again and again to Barbados: A unique Caribbean paradise, surprisingly sophisticated, friendly, fun and always Naturally Charming!

St. Martin, French side. Orient Beach. Topless or nude if you are interested. Great French food. Easy to drive. Friendly locals. Calm water, white sand. Gambling at some Hotels. Excellent shopping on Dutch side. Don't stay near the airport because of the noise.
