All the deals below must be booked before 25 September 2012.
1. Providenciales, Turks & Caicos
TripAdvisor says: What makes this little Caribbean island the travellers' Choice top beach destination for the second year in a row? Families love it for its un-crowded beaches at Taylor Bay and Grace Bay. Divers and snorkelers flock there to explore the bountiful barrier reef, including Smith's Reef and its ocean floor walk.

2. Palm/Eagle Beach, Aruba

Eagle Beach is an idyllic Caribbean beach, with white sands and turquoise waters, and is frequented by water sports enthusiasts. Palm Beach, on the island's west side, offers perfect swimming conditions and powdery sand. Those more concerned with conditions under the waves won't want to miss the wreck of the torpedoed tanker Pedernales, a popular diving site.

4. Negril, Jamaica
TripAdvisor says: Sure, you can leave the sunny sands in favour of a crocodile watch or horseback ride, but when the main strand is called Seven Mile Beach, it's clear what draws most visitors to Negril. Depending on how much sun you want, you're welcome to go topless or even sunbathe in the buff in some places.
DialAFlight says: Stay at the Couples Negril. Stay seven nights at the five-star Couples Negril resort and save over £200 per person. Starting from £1,599 per person for travel from 2 January to 20 March 2013, the price includes all-inclusive accommodation and flights.

TripAdvisor says: It’s not just for spring-breakers. Cancun, with its golden beaches and perfect climate, is the premiere coastal destination in Mexico.

This Yucatan paradise is also the gateway to the ruins of Tulum and Chichén Itzá.
