Dominica<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

New Year\u2019s Eve in Dominica is typically a festive occasion, and though this is a relatively small
\ncountry, there are still plenty of events to keep would-be revelers occupied. Not to mention a
\nfew options for those looking for a more low-key experience, too.
\nOn New Year\u2019s Eve, many Dominicans will kick off the night by attending church. But once the
\nservice is over, it\u2019s time for celebrating and dancing\u2014lots and lots of dancing. Many of the major
\ncelebrations happen in and around the capital, Roseau with clubs and hotels holding traditional
\ncelebrations with DJs and\/or live music. Because this is an island nation, there are also
\nopportunities to take the celebrations to the water on various booze cruises and party boats.
\nBut for something different, instead of sipping Champagne, why not swim in it? Or at least warm
\ntropical water that resembles the tiny bubbles of the popular drink. Champagne Reef\u2014so called
\nfor the millions of tiny bubbles that emerge from the ocean floor\u2014is a must see for divers and
\nsnorkelers of all ages and abilities.<\/p>\n

St. Lucia<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

In St. Lucia, it\u2019s not uncommon to keep the New Year\u2019s Eve celebrations going well until the sun
\nhas come up on New Year\u2019s Day. St. Lucians know how to have a good time and this festive
\nspirit is on full display to ring in the new year.
\nRodney Bay is the most popular area to spend the evening with a wide selection of restaurants
\nas well as clubs and bars. You can expect to find live music as well as DJs, dancing and drinks,
\nand of course fireworks at the stroke of midnight. But every town and village\u2014regardless of
\nsize\u2014will have some form of celebration happening. Often, the party takes place right in the
\nstreet, spilling out from inside crowded clubs.
\nIn the capital city, Castries, celebrations mainly take place at Derek Walcott Square. There,
\nyou\u2019ll find plenty of loud music, food and drink stalls selling treats and tipples, as well as a
\ngeneral party atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Grenada<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

New Year\u2019s Eve\u2014or Old Year\u2019s Night as its better known\u2014it a time to celebrate and also reflect
\non the year that was, and the year that\u2019s to come in Grenada.
\nGrenada has a reputation as hosting some of the liveliest New Year\u2019s Eve celebrations in the
\nentire Caribbean, a bold claim from a region of the world that likes to have a good time and
\ntakes its celebrating very seriously. Grenada is a popular boating destination, and because of
\nthat, it\u2019s no surprise that one of the biggest parties takes place at the Port Louis Marina. The all-
\ninclusive event includes several well-known Caribbean DJs, local entertainment, lots of food and
\ndrinks, and of course fireworks at the stroke of midnight.
\nFor a slightly different scene, many of the hotels and resorts that dot this lush tropical paradise
\nalso offer their own private parties. Dress and celebrations can vary from beach-casual to
\ncocktail dresses and bowties, all depending on what kind of night you\u2019re looking to have.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
