UncommonCaribbean.com, a new blogsite designed to promote travel to the Caribbean by spotlighting the region’s lesser-known charms, celebrated its official launch. The site is the brainchild of two brothers from St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands – Steve Bennett (38), a public relations executive with nearly 20 years of experience in Caribbean travel and tourism marketing, and his brother Patrick Bennett (34), a New York-based advertising creative director with such notable clients as Samsung, Kraft, Six Flags, and Verizon on his resume.
 
Uncommon Caribbean features a bright, clean design with subtle hints of a treasure map motif in line with the site’s mission to introduce readers to the Caribbean’s “undiscovered” charms.  New copy content is added to the site each weekday covering a wide range of topics – gastronomy and spirits, vacation deals, photography, nightlife, resorts, personalities and more – in brief, easy-to-read lengths.
 
Steve commented on the site, saying: “Uncommon Caribbean is a labor of love for us that we hope entertains and inspires people to get out and explore new and different elements of the region that perhaps they’ve never tried in the past, or ever even heard about.”
 
Patrick added: “To me, the best travel experiences come from really delving into a foreign culture and experiencing it first hand.  Helping people figure out how to do this in the Caribbean is really at the heart of what we’re trying to accomplish with the site.”
