Abstract
Maritime forces of the Caribbean islands include both navies and coast guards. There is considerable variation between these offshore forces with regard to both capabilities and functions. A few can perform a variety of offshore security functions, but none are formidable fighting forces. Most Caribbean states have either neglected the development of meaningful naval and coast-guard capabilities or simply cannot provide them. Moreover, the capabilities of the United States and other external powers engaged in the Caribbean overshadow those of the islands.
