  This handbook is designed for visitors who want to understand the region, explore the lesser known islands, get to know the hidden parts of their favourite islands, and gain maximum benefit from their stay. It therefore does not heavily feature shopping, hotels and restaurants. Although not written especially for boating people it does feature many aspects which would be of interest to them. All the main ports and anchorages in the Caribbean are covered, from a shore facilities point of view, and the sections on each island have information about diving, swimming and beaches.
