Hi!
I went to the Bahamas a number of years ago, and I remember it being similar (but not necessarily the latest infrastructure). But I imagine it varies a lot depending on which country you visit in the Caribbean…
I think one of the users on the site – @impactvacations – has accessible vacations there and may be able to comment with more recent information.
Which country do you plan on visiting? Maybe I can help you look up information – I love research 🙂
Started looking around after your question and wonder if this site might help: https://www.accessiblecaribbeanvacations.com
It is mostly cruise packages (which you may or may not be interested in), but there a number of detailed descriptions for different points of interest as well as ports across the Caribbean. They discuss the good and bad accessibility points etc.
On a cruise a few years ago one of our ports was San Juan, I didn’t have a scooter at the time only a wheelchair, had to be the worst place to navigate being in a wheelchair, a policeman stopped the traffic just so we could cross an intersection, ……there is no asphalt.
