As I step off the solar-powered electric boat that glides silently up the Chobe River at sunset, I'm handed a can of sparkling water. "We'll use these for construction once you're finished," my guide explains with a smile. It's a small detail but it perfectly encapsulates what makes this place extraordinary.

| The Toronto Star
With yet another snowstorm keeping Toronto in a deep freeze, Canadians are once again dreaming of sun. But this winter, many are looking beyond the usual U.S. getaways. According to figures released by Statistics Canada in December, outbound visits by Canadian residents to the U.S. have slumped significantly: In the second quarter of 2025, they were down 21.6 per cent year over year. Meanwhile, visits to non-U.S. destinations rose 10.4 per cent year over year.

| OurWindsor.ca
Caribbean islands may look interchangeable at first glance: turquoise water, warm breezes, soft sand. But each place has its own pace, personality and priorities, shaped by geography, history and culture. Choosing where to go isn’t about finding the “best” island; it’s about determining the right fit for you. Over the past five years, I’ve visited more than 16 island destinations for work and for play. Here’s what I’d recommend, depending on your travel style.

Review: Secrets Baby Beach Aruba

By Natalie Preddie 
| TravelAge West
In some crowded places, one can still find a particular kind of solitude. I discovered it at the new Secrets Baby Beach Aruba, where I spent an entire morning wandering through perfectly landscaped gardens and by sparkling pools, all the while convinced that I had the 304-suite property to myself. It wasn't until dinner that I noticed my fellow travelers — the dining room was suddenly full of faces I'd somehow never seen.

The key is preparation, intentionality and embracing the power of community networks that truly span the globe. Connect Before You Go The foundation of finding Black community while travelling starts before you board your flight. Social media and dedicated travel groups have revolutionized how we connect with like-minded travellers and locals at our destinations.

Beaches Resorts: Where All Inclusive Actually Means Including Everyone

By Natalie Preddie 
| ByBlacks.com
But after experiencing what Beaches delivers, it's clear why this investment pays off in ways that budget resorts simply can't match. Most resorts love the ‘all-inclusive’ label, but they often hit you with upgrade fees at every turn. Want decent wine? That's extra. Quality dining? You'll need to pay for the premium restaurants. Tips at every turn? Well, that's on you, too. Beaches does away with these entirely. Quality wine, spirits and beer flow freely, no upgrade fees required.

The once-bustling border crossings between Canada and the United States have seen a slowdown in recent months, as Canadians are increasingly opting to stay home or explore alternative destinations.
