Link: Caribbean Resort Bans Mobile Phones from Beaches

Fancy a holiday to St Vincent & The Grenadines, but find the thought of parting with your mobile worse than having all your limbs removed? Then you may wish to strike off Palm Island from your list.

Elite Island Resorts – who own the luxury Caribbean resort – have banned guests from using mobiles, laptops or PDAs within half a mile of Casarina beach. Chief Executive Rob Barrett has said: “There is nothing worse than lying back in your double hammock, sipping on your strawberry daiquiri and hearing the Motorola jingle in the background.

“We would love to encourage guests to adopt Caribbean time during their stay with us, switch off their mobiles and enjoy the sound of the lapping waves.”

What, no Nokia ringtone? “HELLO? YES I’M ON THE BEACH. THE BEACH!!” (in true Trigger Happy TV style)
