Are you looking for the perfect vacation to reconnect with the ocean and unwind?
Sometimes people are nervous about visiting islands in the hurricane belt during the summer hurricane season months.  Having lived in the Caribbean for 10 years, I think the hurricane season is a great time to visit, as the crowds are way less.... but for those of you preferring to avoid the the unlikely possibility of your vacation falling in the path of a hurricane, here’s a list of the best islands in the world to travel to instead.... ranging from dreamy but far away,
