While in Barbados, you will see various remnants and influences of the English settlerswho arrived in what is now Bridgetown in 1628: Cricket is the national sport, afternoon tea is 
a given, and motorists hug left. Before leaving, you can visit a rum distillery or take a tour to Bathsheba Pools.

Aruba is the Caribbean, but with a charming rugged edge. Brightly coloured houses, vibrant street life and a distinct buzz in the air, are all part of the experience when you visit the capital Oranjestad.You can walk at the Schooner Market and watch merchants sell exotic fruit and fresh fish direct from tiny boats. Aruba is beaches, sun and shopping along Main Street and Lloyd G. Smith Boulevard.Arikok National Park, Aruba's natural treasure, covers nearly one-fifth of the island and is home to rare endemic flaura and fauna, caves for exploring, hiking and ragged, wind-torn bits of coastline for mountain climbing.

Costa Maya stretches North of Belize and south of Cancun, from the fishing town of Xcalak up the coast to the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve. At Costa Maya Port, where you can spend time shopping, relaxing, or planning an adventure - underwater, along the coast, or into the interior. There are a number of Mayan ruins in the area, including the sprawling Ruins of Xcabal, which are still being uncovered, the Yucatan – cenote-pocked, cave-addled, mangrove-tasseled, reef-encrusted, temple-strewn and calm peninsula.

Tampa is located on the west coast of Florida on Tampa Bay, near the Gulf of Mexico. It is an important tourist destination. Tampa offers a unique variety of museums and zoos, sun and some of the world’s best beaches. The historic, colourful neighborhood of Ybor City (the old Latin Quarter) located just northeast of downtown, has turned into an entertainment district worth visiting.
