      St Lucia - lovely but rather quiet
      Barbados - lots of Yanks but a fair amount to do besides beach
      Antigua - never been

      Go to Florida instead! :thumbs:

        Babados very touristy and can be mad busy if there's a couple of Cruiseships in. But, find a quiet spot on the other side of the Island and you'll have the best of both worlds. Can get round the Island in a couple of hours in a Hire Care iirc.

        The others I've never been to, sorry. Good luck, I'm looking for somewhere for January myself at the moment but flying back and forward to Brasil every 6 weeks, don't know if I can be arsed with 7-8 hours to the Carribean if I'm being honest.

            I once took the ex wife on holiday to ..Bangor !:-D





            Ian, been to all three mate ... all shite !! :blalalala:





            Seriously, for what you want St Lucia probably up there, as others have alluded to, quieter of the 3 , as Baz says Barbados when Cruise ships are in is busy, Antigua ... cant remember very much !
            The added interest with St Lucia ia , that if you visit the Power Station ...I mean why wouldnt you ?? You can say that your mate Duncan installed those 146 tonne engines about 12 years ago !:supz:

                          I have been to Barbados a few times - make sure you stay on the west side of the island for the best beaches. The south end is most of the nightlife and cheaper resorts and of course the capital, Bridgetown.

                          St Lucia is generally a bit wetter and has a little more relief to it. That said the winter months after now are generally dry anyway.

                          Both are fabulous places but more for an all inclusive break away from the hustle and bustle than nightlife.

                          I have not been to Antigua.

                              Thx chaps!

                              Barbados west side booked ! St Lucia was looking a bit dodgy due to recent tornado damage.
