Look here for Central America and the Caribbean travel information and recommendations of places to stay and things to see and do by country. You will find the countries listed alphabetically below. If travel is not currently recommended for that country, it is noted in red.

For each country you will find the main international airport(s), where they are located, and their IATA airport code. I have also listed what I consider to be the best months to visit each country. This is meant to be a very general guide as it can change of course depending on where in the country you plan to visit and what you plan to do there. The best months to visit are mainly based on weather, but cost and how busy it may be are also considered.

You will also see recommendations for places to stay and for things to see and do. These are based on what I personally would enjoy or have enjoyed the most. I am a budget minded adult traveller. So, accommodations are clean and in a good location, but in the mid to low range as far as cost. Activities tend to be things that are unique to the destination.
