List of the best carnivals in the Caribbean to attend in 2023

Happy New Year to you and I wish you lots of love, health and prosperity in 2023! Travel has increased a lot in 2022. We have personally traveled around 8 times and have helped around 20 clients discover and explore Tanzania, Brazil, Ghana and Jamaica seamlessly with the support of our local on-site guides .

As we are from the Caribbean ourselves, from the island of Guadeloupe (French Caribbean archipelago between Dominica and St Martin), we know the importance of celebrating our heritage wherever we go! Carnival season usually takes place during the winter in the Caribbean between January and March, but is celebrated throughout the year by the diaspora around the world. We are happy to inspire you to try to witness and participate in this vibrant, colorful and engaging phenomenal experience on one of your future trips! Without further ado, here is the list of all the carnivals you should attend in 2023.
