In the Caribbean there are low risk choices, high risk choices and everything in between. For example Grand Cayman is a low risk, they are very developed and you can readily access safe choices for almost anything. Jamaica as an example is higher risk, it is a beautiful country but they have struggled with their basic infrastructure since they gained independence in '62. Sadly I haven't felt ok going back since transplant. Earlier this year we were in Nevis (which I highly recommend) it this case you could be in a very modern hospital in St Kitts within 45 mins. Zika and Chikungunya have been big concerns lately throughout the region but you can track this through the CDC Travel site. I would recommend wearing shoes with closed toes EVERYWHERE in the Caribbean, there are areas where stray dogs are common, some places where human sewage is a concern and with hurricanes over the years, glass and metal are inevitable. It goes without saying that sunscreen every 2 hours is imperative. Life is an adventure and we are so blessed to have a second shot at it!!! I love traveling and so does my new kidney!!! My advice is...GO FOR IT! Research, plan and get out there!
