From the lush rainforest to the dormant Mount Liamuiga volcano, there are plenty of hiking opportunities on these islands.

I recently published the top 10 most visited Caribbean islands based on data from the Caribbean Tourism Organization. On the list were primarily larger Caribbean islands that over the last three decades invested heavily in their tourism infrastructure with increased aviation capacity, new resorts, tour offerings, etc., and now are reaping the benefits. They account for 76% of the stay-over visitors to the region. So what about the other Caribbean islands? Well, below we count down the ten least visited Caribbean islands. They represent just 3% of the stay-over visitors to the region, but some would say these beautiful and mostly pristine Caribbean islands are a fantastic opportunity for tourists to the region to have a more authentic experience — to discover the Caribbean the way it used to be. So check out these least touristy Caribbean islands and consider one or more for your next vacation.

Lush green mountains abound on the island of Montserrat, known as the ‘Emerald Isle’ of the Caribbean. And for honeymooners and nature lovers who want to get away from it all, Montserrat is the perfect Caribbean destination. The former capital Plymouth is now a modern-day Pompeii, Plymouth buried in volcanic ash from the 1995 eruption of the Soufriere Hills Volcano. What’s left of the island are evergreen mountains dotted with spectacular hiking trails and mysterious dark sand beaches. Montserrat offers travelers a friendly Caribbean charm blended with modern villa accommodations and nature-themed attractions for a serene vacation experience. Don’t leave the island without trying Goat Water, a tasty stew which is the national dish of Montserrat.

Deputy Executive Editor Sarah Schlichter's idea of a perfect trip includes spotting exotic animals, hiking through pristine landscapes, exploring new neighborhoods on foot, and soaking up as much art as she can. She often attempts to recreate recipes from her international travels after she gets home (which has twice resulted in accidental kitchen fires—no humans or animals were harmed).

But with so many Caribbean islands to choose from, it’s hard to know where to start. Popular Caribbean destinations like Aruba, Jamaica and the Bahamas boast perfect beaches and a plethora of things to do, but the more you research, the more you’ll discover the little-known gems and the off-the-beaten-path spots that keep so many people coming back year after year.

Finding the perfect Caribbean destination is easy when there are so many great islands and cultures to visit, but that’s also what makes it so difficult.
