If you want to find the perfect casino in the Caribbean, you shouldn’t have to roll the dice.

While there are some great casinos scattered around the region, some islands have a far better offering than others.

That’s why we’ve collected the top five casino destinations in the Caribbean right now, with a focus on the quality and diversity of the gaming experience, along with other factors like food and beverage and hotel options.

The verdict? Right now, Nassau remains the king of the casino in the Caribbean, but there are some great options around the region worth checking out.

The casino at the Baha Mar is the biggest in the Caribbean.

Nassau Paradise Island The island of New Providence was long the gaming capital of the Caribbean thanks to its flagship Atlantis resort — but it just got even better. The debut of the Baha Mar, a place we’ve called the Las Vegas of the Caribbean, has made Nassau the center of the Caribbean casino world. And get this – the Baha Mar is even better. While Atlantis has a total of 64,814 square feet, the Baha Mar’s sparkling casino has 100,000 square feet of casino space (including a superb sports book), with a high-end, Vegas feel. This is a significant casino destination, not just for the Caribbean, but for the world.
