Geography And Climate

The geography and climate of the Caribbean are as varied as the culture and demographics of its inhabitants. Typically warm and forgiving weather is an additional incentive for tourists. The variety of the Caribbean region leads to significant land forms and a surprising variety of climatic conditions. 
Some parts of the Caribbean - like Margarita and the Dutch Antilles - experience semi-arid conditions that lead to the formation of deserts. Cloud cover is generally sparse or absent in these areas for many parts of the year as well. The climate of Trinidad - as the southernmost Caribbean island - is similar to that of Guyana with a very prominent "rainy season" and high humidity.
