Gay Friendly Caribbean

Most of the area could be called a Gay Friendly Caribbean. The Caribbean has many couples oriented resorts and hotels. It is therefore understood that those resorts are ideal for the gay and lesbian couples.

But not the whole area is like that. The French, Dutch and U.S. Islands welcome the gay tourists with open arms while others of British origin like Barbados, Jamaica and the Cayman Islands have a reputation of being not so friendly.
