What island has the most LARGE Tropical Palm Trees?

I love those huge Tropical Palm Trees but notice that they were few and far between in most islands south of Florida. Most I saw seemed a little tired looking, not so healthy and kind of small. I am looking for the ones that look really tropical and are tall kind of like the South Pacific, but in the Caribbean.

or yet another species of the palm family
