Dominican Republic
Finding a beautiful beach sunset in the Dominican Republic is an easy task. With 800 miles of coastline, it’s safe to say this hotspot has its fair share of beaches. But this doesn’t mean that every beach sunset is the same! That’s right, whether you’re heading to the relaxing resort of Punta Cana or the capital Puerto Plata each beach sunset will offer an incomparable experience, making it the best Caribbean island for its sunset scapes.
Rum shacks, reggae and coconut palms are just a few highlights of this Caribbean island. As the home of Rihanna and the holiday of choice for dozens of celebrities, there’s no wonder this laid-back island has become one of the most sought-after destinations on the map. And with several beaches boasting some of the most incredible sunsets in the world like Bottom Bay Beach, Maxwell Beach and perhaps the most famed, Sandy Lane, there’s no better place to watch those last slivers of daylight disappear.

Cuba
Nature has left us awe-struck once again, but this time it’s in Cuba. Not only does this island have a wealth of culture but it also has some of the best sun sinking views you may ever witness. Walk along Havana’s Malecon seafront or feel the cool ocean breeze on Varadero beach as you experience a Cuban sunset like no other.
There’s something extraordinary about watching the sun’s rays flickering on the surface of a calm ocean and creating a heart-warming effect on all that have witnessed it. Often described as the jewel of the Caribbean, Jamaica’s laid-back vibe is the ideal setting for a sunset sitting. Famous for its jerk-cooking and reggae roots this island brings those brochure images to life. From east to west there is dozens of stunning beaches to choose from such as Negril’s seven miles of sand and the gentle waves of Montego Bay’s Doctor’s Cave. With so many beaches to sample chasing that textbook sunset won’t be a problem.
