Cayman Islands
British territory, maybe, but there is nothing British about the Cayman Islands. More like a version of Florida with its SUVs and US dollars, Cayman is formed by three very different types of islands. The biggest one is Grand Cayman, and its touristic worth is in the unknown places of the island. You can also visit Cayman Brad or Little Cayman, which are extremely different from their big sister, partly but not only because of their small size.
Curacao
Curacao is an island country owned by the Netherlands as a part of the ABC islands: Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao.

For even more exploring, there's the Mikvé Israel-Emanuel Synagogue and the island's many history museums!
