Caribbean Family Trips

The beach is a popular destination for vacationing families. Some of the most popular beaches are located in the Caribbean Sea, south of the United States. The Caribbean is made up of hundreds of islands of various countries, including some of the islands mentioned in the popular Beach Boys song, "Kokomo," such as Aruba, Jamaica and the Bahamas. Each Caribbean island offers its own version of a family vacation, from all-inclusive resorts to hotel water parks and indoor aquariums.
  1. Bahamas: The Atlantis Resort

    • The Atlantis Resort is located on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Atlantis is comprised of more than six buildings featuring more than 1,000 guest rooms, and 20 restaurants and its own water park. An aquarium is located inside one of the lobby restaurants which is the home to sharks, stingrays, jelly fish and hundreds of other sea creatures. You and your kids can even face these creatures up close when you slide through the aquarium in a glass tube through the Mayan Temple Shark Lagoon. Atlantis sits on its own private beach, with activities available for both adults and their children. The hotel provides children's programs daily and babysitting services in the evening so adults can utilize the spa, casino and restaurants.
