* The ComicsNix [[SoBadItsGood "masterpiece"]] ''ScoobyDoo [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5915590/1/Scooby_Doo_and_the_Trip_of_Lust and the Trip of Lust]]'' is set in "Jamaca Island, the earth of Bob Marley and StevieWonder." (the latter of whom isn't actually from Jamaica).

* [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=149300 This]] role playing thread on AlternateHistoryDotCom features an entire PlayedForLaughs PunkPunk setting based on this trope...

* TheAndrewsSisters' classic "Rum and Coca-Cola" is about American tourists in Trinidad.

* Parts of the album ''Waiting For Cousteau'' by JeanMichelJarre which was recorded on the island of Trinidad include a big local steel drum band. "Calypso" even comes with a somehow Caribbean groove.
* GreatBigSea sang "Penelope," about a Jamaican bazaar worker who moves to Chicago to become a domestic and to search for her lost uncle. She goes back, secure in the knowledge that the slow-paced life in the tropics is far better than the frantic concrete mess that is The Big City. [[EpilepticTrees Can be seen as an analogy for Newfoundlanders moving to big-city Canada and longing for home]].

* ''Film/ClubParadise'', a RobinWilliams vehicle, includes pretty much every Caribbean trope except the pirates.

* In 2011, Florida based promotion Ring Warriors became a new millennium springboard for the Wrestling/{{N|ationalWrestlingAlliance}}WA to promote events throughout the Caribbean.

Later, they run afoul of the "Pirates of the Caribbean", as Captain Ron calls them, and get their boat stolen at gunpoint. (This movie was made before the Disney movie trilogy, so viewers will awkwardly hear the children's dad saying Captain Ron "went to Disneyland too many times").
** Pirates of the Caribbean existed before the movie trilogy, as a ride in Disneyland. Just to clarify.
** The movie was filmed in Puerto Rico.

* Sky and Sarah's trip to Havana in ''{{Guys and Dolls}}'' (pre-Castro, of course).

* In a ''CodenameKidsNextDoor'' episode, the hamsters go on a vacation at Jamaica's KND sector. The operatives are ''very'' laid-back to the point of not knowing what an emergency is, and persistently offer mango smoothies to everyone. One of the operatives there is your stereotypical Jamaican who hilariously seems to be the only one who can stomach Lizzie's horrible cooking.

Excludes Cuba (since circa 1959) [[EspeciallyZoidberg and Haiti]]. Jamaica is a specialized case, mostly due to a perceived abundance of Reggae and Rastafari folks [[TheStoner with a penchant for the "Wisdom Weed"]]. The Bahamas is often mistaken for Jamaica much to the chagrin of BOTH countries' citizens. This is despite, however, a minority of Rastafarians in Jamaica.
