The
Caribbean Sea and its islands is also known as the Antilles
by French speakers, Caribe by Spanish speakers and the West
Indies by varied people due to Columbus' original idea that he had
found a part of India. His SatNav was way off then. In English speaking
areas of the Caribbean indigenous people are often referred to as West
Indian.
The Caribbean is composed of over 7,000 islands and islets [really
tiny islands] - bordered by Florida the the north, Central America to
the west and Venezuela to the south - that range from tropical to sub-tropical
and specialise in superb beach holiday environments, brilliant scuba diving
and world-class hurricanes [August to October].
