When a Caribbean eSIM makes sense
- Island hopping, for example Saint Lucia and Barbados, with one eSIM for all islands.
- Trips that combine the Dominican Republic with another island: Holafly and Yesim include it, Airalo's Caribbean plan does not.
- Not for Cancún or the Riviera Maya: there you need an eSIM for Mexico, because none of the Caribbean plans includes Mexico.
For comparison, the cheapest 5 GB for 7 days with an eSIM for a single country: Dominican Republic $24, Mexico $12.
