I've been to 13, but I can't believe none of the Grenadines are on the list. 19. St Vincent is the Grenadines.

16 St John was my favorite. Yost Vandyke can be reached only by boat, great beach but not much more.

"Oh, I wish I was there tonight, on Yost Van Dyke".. Kenny Chesney. No airport on St. John either.
I remember that old song "Kokomo". We went through most of the islands in that song, many of them on a cruise. Never could convince Eric to go to Bermuda. Would still like to do that though. Having visited most of the islands in the Caribbean, many on cruises, but many staying on land, St. Maarten/ST. Martin is head and shoulders above all the rest for us. I have no idea how T & L made their rankings, but to put islands like St. Croix, Vieques, or Culebra above SXM, I guess they are focused on uncrowded, with nothing to do, but go to the beach. SXM has great beaches, but so much more!!

We’ve visited fourteen but only over-nighted on nine of them, along with a few more that didn’t make the main list. We had considered doing a cruise to hit the ones we‘ve missed but Covid caused us to cancel that plan.

I'm older than you Carol. Didn't include Shelter Island, Fire Island, Long Island, the Keys etc. LOL I So, Ladies, are we counting ALL the islands we've visited or just the ones on the list of favorites? 'Cause I know you've been to more than nineteen in total, Irina.

Pat--I counted just the ones on that list. Lots of islands in the Caribbean I have been to that are not on that list.
