Tropical Islands Information
Tropical Islands - when they had been discovered? by who? and - which Island is the ultimate vacation for everyone? See for yourself...
Tropical Islands of the Caribbean are known as one of the most beautiful and peaceful places on earth.
Indians were the first inhabitants here, and then, in 1492, Christopher Columbus began his exploration of these islands, becoming the first European to venture into the area. After landing in the Bahamas, Columbus named these islands the Indies, because he thought he had finally reached Asia (and the East Indies).
Numerous explorers followed in his path, then settlers arrived from the Americas and Europe. Included in that mix were religious outcasts, slaves from Africa, and a small army of infamous pirates.
Long called the West Indies, the overall area is now commonly referred to as the Caribbean, a name that became popular after World War II.
