This article comprises three sortable tables of major mountain peaks^[1] of the islands of the Caribbean Sea.

Pico Duarte is the highest point in the Dominican Republic, the island of Hispaniola, and the entire Caribbean.

The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:

1. The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level.^[2] The first table below ranks the 20 highest major summits of the Caribbean by elevation.
2. The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings.^[3][2] The second table below ranks the 20 most prominent summits of the Caribbean.
3. The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation.^[4] The third table below ranks the 20 most isolated major summits of the Caribbean.

Highest major summits

Of the 20 highest major summits of the Caribbean, only Pico Duarte exceeds 3000 meters (9843 feet) elevation, six peaks exceed 2000 meters (6562 feet), and 15 peaks exceed 1000 meters (3281 feet) elevation.

Of these 20 peaks, three are located in the Dominican Republic, three in Cuba, two in Haiti, two in Saint Kitts and Nevis, one each in Jamaica, Guadeloupe, Dominica, Martinique, Puerto Rico, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Lucia, Trinidad and Tobago, Montserrat, and Venezuela.
