This article comprises four sortable tables of major mountain summits[1] of the Caribbean that are the higher than any other point north or south of their latitude or east or west their longitude in the region.

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]
2. The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings.[3][2]
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]
