At the Mount Gay Rum Distillery, you'll hear about its namesake, Sir John Gay, along with their 300+ years of knowledge, experience and refinement of the delicious libation, first known as "Kill-Devil," we all know as rum.
Turtle Beach Resort All-Inclusive is named as such because from April through November, it's actually a sea turtle nesting ground. The wild life, though, is just part of what makes this resort so incredible: the open-air lobby boasts ocean breezes and all the rooms are suites.

To show our support, we're donating 20 percent of the proceeds from the 2018 Rum Tour to Tourism Cares, a non-profit that is working to help disaster-affected Caribbean countries. What better thing to do than have drinks in paradise while giving back? Yep, we thought so.
