Countries in Caribbean
The Caribbean encompasses over 700 islands organized into more than 25 countries and territories, stretching from Cuba and Hispaniola in the Greater Antilles to the small island states of the Lesser Antilles. The region's economy depends heavily on tourism, which attracts millions of visitors to its white-sand beaches and turquoise waters. Caribbean nations are particularly vulnerable to hurricanes and the impacts of climate change, including sea-level rise threatening low-lying islands.
