Guess Where Giveaway Winner: Congrats Kayte Cook Watts!

It’s all about you, Kayte Cook Watts! You’re the big winner of our latest Guess Where Giveaway!
Kayte, like just about everyone else who submitted a guess (we like to keep things simple), correctly identified our mystery attraction/location as part of the famed Underwater Sculpture Park in Moilinere Bay off the coast of Grenada.
The first such undersea artistic installation of its kind, the park features 65 sculptures by Jason de Caires Taylor spread over an area of 800 sq meters. All the sculptures are based in clear, shallow waters, providing easy access for snorkelers and divers alike. Moilinere Bay is about 2 miles north of Grenada’s capital city, St Georges.

Guess Where Giveaway: Win a Free Tortuga Rum Cake!

Guess Where Give Away


Uncommon Caribbean rarely needs an excuse to party. But, it just so happens that we welcomed our 500th Facebook fan last week, so let’s celebrate!
Like any good celebration, this one will have rum, a cake and a game.
Okay, the rum and cake are together in the form of a Tortuga Rum Cake. The #1 export of the Cayman Islands, Tortuga Rum Cakes are made in the grand tradition of an age-old Hamaty family recipe handed down through the generations. The husband and wife duo of Robert and Carlene Hamaty founded the Tortuga Rum Company back in 1984, with Carlene starting the cake end of the business in 1987.
