Which is the best caribbean island to vacation on??

Dominica is the best for vacation oh and yes pirate of the Caribbean was film in dominica

St Marteens on the dutch side

id say either jamaica or the bahamas... or wherever they shot pirates of the caribbean

From my personal experiences, I say Barbados. It has a lot to offer ranging from sightseeing to duty-free shopping to beaches to nightlife to food/drinks. It's the island that has me keep coming back to. For your father, it has to be an island matching his description, i.e. what he wants to do, etc.. Hope this helps with his decision.

Grand Cayman. Has the world famous Seven Mile Beach and is the most relaxing place to stay. I stayed at Harbour Heights: http://www.harbourheightscayman.com/ Check out the site, there are rates and photos too.

I'd say one of the Virgin Islands... like st. bart or something...

My first response is, "the next island I'm on". A lot depends on how active your dad is and if this is going to be a once in a life time experience. For easy and manueverable, I'd choose Grand Bahama's My Lucaya. For the best all round Caribbean experience, I'd choose St. Maarten. For enchantment, St. Bart's.

Barbados is the best. Warm weather and the best beaches in the world. We are known as the gem of hte Caribbean with good reason
