Hurricane Dean taken by crew members on the space shuttle Endeavour

British holidaymakers travelling to the Caribbean face disruption as Hurricane Dean heads towards popular tourist spots with increasing strength.
Restrictions are now in force on inbound visitors to both Jamaica and the Cayman Islands. The Met Office predicted that Dean could turn into a Category 5 storm - the highest level for a tropical cyclone - within the next three days.

The storm, the first hurricane of the Atlantic season, is set to pass directly over Jamaica at about mid-morning Sunday local time, according to weather company MeteoGroup. It is currently travelling at 18mph towards the island, with wind speeds of 150mph and gusts of up to 185mph.
In the Cayman Islands, where the hurricane is expected early on Monday morning, the Government announced that only Cayman nationals and residents can enter the islands until further notice.
