4.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource for Beaches, hotels, travel ferries, etc, December 15, 2004

This review is from: Fodor's Caribbean 2004 (Fodor's Gold Guides) (Paperback)

Having done a 21 day shoot for our "Best Caribbean Beaches" DVD on Amazon, here, I can say this book was an invaluable resource. It would have been 5 stars, but Fodor's continues not to include pictures. They have great maps, with beaches located, and well described. They even have the Ferry routes in the Virgin Islands so you can plan your trips. (Though my old Ferry almost sank when it blew an engine in 5 foot swells! Luckily, we were rescued.) I strongly recommend this as a factual resource. However, if you want to see and hear what Caribbean Beaches look like, check out our DVD after reading this book.
