    he Caribbean Sea is a sea of the Atlantic Ocean situated in the tropics of the Western hemisphere. It is bounded by Mexico and Central America to the west and southwest, to the north by the Greater Antilles, and to the east by the Lesser Antilles.[1] The entire area of the Caribbean Sea, the numerous islands of the West Indies, and adjacent coasts, are collectively known as the Caribbean. The Caribbean Sea is one of the largest salt water seas and has an area of about 2,754,000 km² (1,063,000 sq. mi.).[2] The sea's deepest point is the Cayman Trough, between the Cayman Islands and Jamaica, at 7,686 m (25,220 ft) below sea level. The Caribbean coastline has many gulfs and bays: the Gulf of Gonâve, Gulf of Venezuela, Gulf of Darién, Golfo de los Mosquitos and Gulf of Honduras.

    Tourism not Curriculum // Bonnie Marks

    This resource is primarily geared to tourism, with descriptions of vacation activities and links to hotels.  Contains advertising.  I was able to get an update on Carriacou - where good friends had been in the Peace Corps in the 1970's.   Not a resource I'd use with students.  National Geographic has better offerings to support student learning.

    Montserrat // Teri Sanders

    This island, Montserrat, was not unknown to me.  I knew someone stranded in San Diego and unable to return to their home in Montserrate when the volcano blew in 2003.
