The West Indies is located in The Caribbean Sea! :]
The Caribbean Islands were called the West Indies because when Christopher Columbus arrived in the region in 1492, he mistakenly believed he had found a route to the Indies, which referred to the lands of India and Southeast Asia. He named the islands "Indies" in reference to this belief. The term "West Indies" was used to distinguish these islands from the "East Indies," which referred to the Asian territories. Over time, the name became widely accepted for the Caribbean region.
