You step off the van where the air tastes of salt and citrus, and the island opens in tiers: steep ridgelines cut by narrow roads, bay after bay glinting like coins. Over two hours a local driver-guide will steer you through viewpoints that put the Atlantic on one shoulder and the calm Caribbean on the other, pausing for photos at outlooks that make the islands feel close enough to touch.
