IT’S ONE of our favourite sayings in the Caribbean: “Walk Good.” A great way to say goodbye, take care or safe travels in Jamaica, it also aptly describes one of the best things to do in the Caribbean – to take a good, long walk on the beach. And who doesn’t like that? The Caribbean has beaches for everything — a silent escape, an afternoon snorkel, a long nap. But the region has some that are just perfect for those ideal long walks on the beach. So as the summer goes on, and the mercury rises, keep these in mind when you’re planning that perfect sunset stroll in the Caribbean. Is there a beach you prefer for long walks? Let us know in the comments section, and walk good.
