Health, Weather and Safety Tips: The Caribbean is known for warm temperatures and plenty of sunshine year-round, and with that comes some health concerns. Make sure to pack lots of sunscreen, insect repellent, and any necessary medications for illnesses such as malaria or dengue fever.

Stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade to avoid heat exhaustion. It’s also important to check for any travel warnings, especially during hurricane season.
