Plus, we’ll be Guarding the Yucatan with a party at Margaritaville in Cozumel.

There's no "Trop Rock" without the "Rock" and we're hosting the coolest trip of 2025: "Rock & Roll Research" with James "Sunny Jim" White! Seven nights in London and Liverpool, visiting all the spots that made the 60's and 70's such an amazing time in music. The Beatles, Stones, Doors, Hendrix, Bowie, Led Zep, Clapton, Yardbirds, Pink Floyd and so much more. We'll have specially escorted tours of the places where the music was recorded, where it was performed, and where the artists who made it lived. And we'll find out how "Sunny Jim" got his nickname! Hint: It had nothing to do with palm trees or beaches. As if that wasn't enough, we'll explore all the famous sites of the city of London from Buckingham Palace to the Tower of London, with available excursions to Stonehenge and more. September 27 to October 4, 2025 - with a bonus tour of Scotland for those who are interested. Only 48 seats are available. The package is booked, the tours are scheduled, all we need is you! Booking info and pricing drops tomorrow. www.sunnyjim.com Sunny Jim Music

Original music with a tropical twist by singer/songwriter James "Sunny Jim" White who spent more than a decade in the Cayman Islands. Now at home in Southwest Florida, he travels across the U.S. and the Caribbean performing his songs.
