[quote=Anonymous]I’ve been to all three multiple times. They all have fantastic beaches and snorkeling. I think if I was forced to rank them, I’d say 1. Barbados, 2. Aruba and 3. Cayman Islands.

Barbados just has so much to see and do. Amazing diving/snorkeling. Gorgeous beaches (one for every day of the year). Visiting caves, botanical gardens, animal reserves, wild monkeys running around everywhere (especially up in the more mountainous areas). It also has great shopping, restaurants, bars. It has upscale areas (wealthy Brits have second homes there like Mick Jagger). But it also has more down to earth local areas (see Oistens Fish fry). Again, something for everyone.

Aruba is also awesome. I love Eagle beach (less windy than Palm beach imo). It has great shopping, restaurants, etc… it feels very safe and has lots of US tourists (Barbados has lots of Brits as a former British colony). I’d say for a relaxing, low activity vacation, Aruba is the way to go. There is way less to do than Barbados, but if you only care about beaches/water sports, then you can’t go wrong.

I’ve been to Cayman Islands a long time ago. It is great for diving/snorkeling. I remember there were lots of upscale US tourists but as far as I can remember, there was not a ton to see and do (besides water-based activities). [/quote]
