Learn the Caribbean by Group
The Caribbean islands fall into a few clear groups:
The Greater Antilles — the big islands running west to east: Cuba (the largest), Hispaniola (shared by Haiti in the west and the Dominican Republic in the east), Jamaica to the south, and Puerto Rico to the east.
The Bahamas — the archipelago north of Cuba, arcing toward Florida.
The Lesser Antilles — the small chain curving south toward South America, ending at Trinidad and Tobago off the coast of Venezuela. Many of these islands are too small to show at map scale.
Why the Caribbean Map Is Tricky
The Caribbean packs many nations into a small area, and most are tiny islands — which makes it one of the hardest regions on any world map.
This quiz focuses on the larger islands you can reliably click: Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, and Trinidad and Tobago. For the smaller nations of the Lesser Antilles — and every Caribbean capital — the capitals quizzes are the better drill.
The Caribbean is dominated by the Greater Antilles — Cuba, Hispaniola (shared by Haiti and the Dominican Republic), Jamaica, and Puerto Rico — plus the Bahamas to the north and Trinidad and Tobago to the south. Cuba is the largest island by far, and the many small nations of the Lesser Antilles are the hardest to place.
Quiz tip: The Greater Antilles — Cuba, Hispaniola, Jamaica, and Puerto Rico — are the big, easy anchors; the smaller Lesser Antilles are mostly too tiny to render at map scale.
