Re: Caribbean islands most Hawaii-like?

Hi,

I like Jamaica

nice beaches (sand, rock, isolated, developed...)

mountains, hiking,

nice (more or less english speaking ;-}) folks...

for a few more months it won't require a passport (but ya might as well get one)...

close.

ya don't even have to change money... US$ universally accepted.

Been to Caribbean once..... Tulum Mexico area. Was
flat as a pancake

Want to take a week long winter vacation to someplace
very warm in Dec or Jan

Where in the Caribbean could I go that would have some
terrain diversity like Hawaii has? Mountains and
hiking trails as well as white sand beach and warm
waters?

Cost is a factor as I'm not rich

have any advice on islands to check out? Places other
than Yucatan peninsula?

I live in north Missouri so could fly out of St Louis
or Kansas City
