The only way you pronounce “Caribbean” differently is when saying, “Pirates of the Caribbean.”

It doesn't matter which way you say it. It means the same thing.

Consult Billy Ocean. He know how to say it right.

I put the emphasis on the 2nd syllable like #2. However most of the inhabitants put the emphasis on the third syllable: care-uh-BEE-an.
#1 is almost certainly "more right" given how the residents pronounce it but I still pronounce it "wrong".
Cambridge dictionary with audible pronuciations
I suppose it is a bit like New Orleans.

1.
It's named after the Carib natives and their name is pronounced "CARE-ib", not "kuh-RIB".

I like to watch the Pirates of the #1 when I'm inside of the #2.

I've heard both, but it seems #1 is how it is pronounced more often in recent years.

Have been blessed with multiple visits to Jamaica, on one of those trips, I learned that the original indigenous tribes of the Ka-Rib-E-In were the Caribe tribe. There are no Caribe left in the Caribbean, as they were hunted to extinction for sport or by disease by the Spanish.

*correct
and the original inhabitants of those islands were the Carib Indians, so “care-RIB ee-an” is considered to be correct.

It’s odd but when I say the movie title, #1
When I’m talking about going on vacation, I say #2.
