The Caribbean climate brings a drier stretch from December to April and a more humid one from June to November. Caribbean cooking leans on fresh seafood, tropical fruit, rice and island spices, which shapes what is served across the region. Travellers reach these islands by scheduled air routes and by ferries and short flights linking one island to the next. Alongside English and French, which serve many visitors well, the local languages of the Caribbean keep daily life running.
