Have you considered a Caribbean Safari for your next holidays

In General people don’t seem to know that there is such a thing as a Caribbean Safari, just the Africa kind? The white sand and the clear skies, that’s about the only thing that springs immediately to mind when you think of the Caribbean. Nobody really matches up a Caribbean holiday in St Lucia with a Safari holiday in the middle of the Island.

Although you won’t be finding lions or many larger animals on one of these safaris there are many different and diverse animals living here. Across the islands there are a massive amount of bird species. Trinidad alone has more bird species than the whole of Canada. There are humming birds and parrots, frigate birds and pelicans flying about all over the place.

Now large animals are some what limited on the land but there is not short fall of large animals in the ocean. But the Wildlife doesn’t just end at the shoreline, if you get in a safari boat they will take you out to sea. There are many different kinds of fish and mammal out in the sea as well, ranging from dolphins to whales. This kind of safari is slightly different to that of the ones you find in Africa, with this one you can sometimes get out of the jeep and walk around. But be careful in some of the larger islands you could come across some big alligators.

What is truly astonishing is the general knowledge that the guides have about some of these certain areas. There are some great stories that they tell about adventures they have had in the past. But you need to go on one of the Rain Forest safaris to find out about this. So if you have the decision on a Kenya safari or a Caribbean safari, you should think about what kind of holiday you would prefer, the adventure strung Africa Safari, or the more relaxed Caribbean Safari?
