Find your perfect outdoor escape in the Caribbean and Central America

When cabin fever's got you itching to explore, it's time to swap those four walls for sandy beaches and tropical skies. Get ready for adventure-packed vacations that'll make you wonder why you ever stayed inside!

JAMAICA

Welcome to the Heartbeat of the World, where adventure is never in short supply! Begin your escapade in Montego Bay, the capital of fun, with horseback rides and swims on the beach or tackle an ATV safari through jungles that would give Tarzan a run for his money.

Don’t miss ziplining through the treetops or channel your inner Olympian on a bobsled ride straight out of Cool Runnings. Keep your eyes peeled for birds as a chairlift whisks you 700 feet high.

For a spooky twist, visit Rose Hall and hear tales of the infamous White Witch—just remember to sip on a Witches Brew cocktail to keep the spirits at bay. Prefer a more chill vibe? Drift down a jungle river in a tube or take a bamboo raft ride along the Martha Brae River. For a bonding experience, form a human chain to climb Dunn’s River Falls.

Pro-tip: Back at the hotel, be on the lookout for beach cookouts featuring must-try jerk chicken or vegan jerk cauliflower, paired with Red Stripe beer or coconut water, as Reggae tunes fill the air!

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

With a coastline that's a sun-worshipper’s paradise, the Dominican Republic offers over 200 beaches with waters begging for snorkeling, diving, or a thrilling banana boat ride. Or, sink into a lounger and soak up those rays.

Golf enthusiasts, rejoice! This island boasts the most golf courses in the Caribbean, designed by legends like Jack Nicklaus, and many resorts offer free tee times.

Thrill-seekers can head to Cueva de Las Maravillas for a journey through ancient art-covered caves. Or visit Cap Cana's Scape Park for a hike through the Iguabonita Cave system.

But for the ultimate canyoning adventure, Puerto Plata is your playground. Brave the 27 Charcos of Damajagua or discover the secret "God’s Pool."

Pro-tip: Casa de Campo Resort is a treasure trove of activities, from golf and tennis to horseback riding and a Real Madrid Soccer Camp for kids.

COSTA RICA

Costa Rica's pura vida lifestyle shines brightest in Guanacaste, home to the majestic Arenal Volcano. Here, misty rainforests, roaring waterfalls, and vibrant wildlife are your playground. Cross hanging bridges under the watchful eyes of red-eyed frogs and toucans.

Venture to Palo Verde National Park for a wildlife spectacle or visit Diamante Eco Adventure Park, where you can meet rescued animals and fly like Superman on a zipline along the Pacific Ocean.

Pro-tip: Join award-winning guided tours to explore Guanacaste's wonders. Whether with new friends or your private crew, adventure awaits!
