M. Timothy O?Keefe's new online
travel guide to Caribbean vacations is a valuable resource for those travellers interested in more than the usual sunshine and beaches vacation.
?If you really want to understand the Caribbean you need to get away from the water and walk the trails that run through the hillsides and mountains,? said O?Keefe. ?That?s how you get to know what the islands taste like, what they sound like, what they smell like and how they feel--including their mud and thorns.
Although
the web site describes almost 400 hikes and walks, it also provides information on many other topics, such as where to find the best beaches, where to find nesting sea turtles and where to feed a shark. "It?s really a personal tour of the islands based on my 30 years of traveling the region,? said O?Keefe.
