Caribbean Beat Magazine Description:

Published since 1992 by Media & Editorial Projects Ltd (MEP Publishers) as the inflight magazine of BWIA and now the award-winning Caribbean Airlines (and Air Jamaica), Caribbean Beat is the Caribbean’s leading magazine on Caribbean and West Indian arts, culture and society. Beat is a magazine about the real Caribbean — a general-interest, pan-Caribbean publication, produced in the West Indies, by Caribbean people. It gets behind the familiar stereotypes to show how rich Caribbean life really is – its music, art, dance, books, sport, fashion, design, festivals, history, environment, people, lifestyle. This is the region’s most widely-distributed magazine, committed to the highest editorial and production standards.
