Press Media Wire (Press Release) - Aug 13,2009 - PressMediaWire - (Washington D.C., August 13, 2009) – Travel-planning website Away.com has unveiled a new interactive Caribbean travel guide, making it easier for travelers to research and plan a trip to their own island paradise. As most vacationers know, you can scuba dive through underwater canyons, charter a sail boat, or just plunk down on the white sands with a fruity drink in hand while in the Caribbean. But you can also hike and bike in the islands’ national parks, windsurf across hidden coves, and spot migrating pink flamingos. You can rent an isolated beach cottage or relax in a luxury mega-resort, chow down on fresh fish at a roadside stand or indulge in dinner at a five-star restaurant. Away.com’s comprehensive travel guide, sponsored by Norwegian Cruise Line, helps vacationers make sense of their vacation options, according to specific budgets, tastes, and lifestyles. The interactive Caribbean map lets a traveler’s passions–family travel, beach travel, sailing, hiking, diving, biking, and more—guide them to the very best islands, as selected by Away.com’s widely published, carefully vetted travel experts. Interlaid on the map are island-specific When to Go guides with climate highlights that help vacationers select the best time of year to find their paradise. “Everyone wants to go to the Caribbean, but most people don’t know specifically where to go,” says Eric Brodnax, Away.com’s general manager. “Our guide helps travelers narrow their focus based on their travel interests, and it also provides island-level overviews on the weather and the best times to visit.” Need a little more inspiration? View travel photo galleries and download screensavers of the best images from above and below the sea in the Bahamas, Grenada, and Bonaire. Let travel articles aid in your planning. Find where to dive in the Caymans or what it’s like to sail the Caribbean, delivering homegrown chocolate bars. Or count down through Away.com’s reader-favorite Top Ten travel lists, which profile the best Caribbean resorts, must-attend island festivals, cheap beach vacations, and more. Then, dig in deeper with island-specific profiles and expert-selected top hotels and island attractions, supplemented by user-generated overviews and recommendations. Late-summer deals are increasingly available across the islands as the travel season winds down (that means fewer crowds and lower costs).
