Caribbean nations

West Indies countries

The Caribbean nations are the independent countries of the Caribbean Sea region, including island states like Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Trinidad and Tobago, along with smaller nations such as Barbados, the Bahamas, and Saint Lucia.

The term typically refers to the thirteen sovereign states that are members of CARICOM, the Caribbean Community, though it sometimes extends to include coastal nations like Belize and Guyana.

Caribbean nations share concerns about climate change and rising sea levels.
