It’s one of the loveliest sounds in the Caribbean: the twilight serenade of tree frogs. 

We captured this beautiful music during a recent stay at the Eclipse at Half Moon resort in Jamaica, a moment of pure Caribbean. 

It’s song of Caribbean evenings, the music of the natural Antillean orchestra. 

So take a minute, close your eyes and imagine yourself with a first-row orchestra seat.
