The stunning Tobago Cays National Marine Park is also located within SVG.

A collection of several uninhabited islands in the southern section of the Grenadines that offer some of the best beaches for swimming, tanning and snorkeling in the Caribbean.
The water, reefs and aquatic life here are all outstanding. There must’ve been 70 yachts moored but everyone was polite, quiet and respectful. Even though the reef breaks the waves, it is windy here so keep that in mind if you’re bareboating. Moorings in the cut are quite close together. There is current too so I can see how it could be intimidating for a beginner snorkeler or someone who is not a confident swimmer. Saw numerous rays, turtles and many beautiful fish. There are 2 dingy moorings for those who wish to dinghy out to the reef. We’ve snorkeled throughout the Caribbean and I’d consider this to be in the top 3. Sandy Island off Carriacou, Petit Nevis and Indians in the BVI were similarly exceptional.

The Botanical Gardens are one of the most important and popular sites in St Vincent. They are the oldest botanical gardens in the Western Hemisphere (established in 1765) and are also an important conservation site (particularly for the St Vincent parrot). The Botanical Gardens are in Kingstown, a short journey from the town centre.
Not the biggest gardens in the world, but well worth a visit. Recommend the guided tour, our guide, Cornelius was excellent. Lots to see from all around the world.

One of Bequia's most popular beaches.
Now most will have heard of Mustique but not necessarily Bequia (pronounced Bek-way). Both are part of St Vincent and the Grenadines, a sovereign state comprising 32 islands 11 inhabited. The island of Bequia was going to be a beach day for us and what a beautiful day it was too!! We took the tender from our cruise ship into Port Elizabeth greeted by the sign at the end of the jetty....Welcome to Bequia???? We had a wonder around the shops/stalls and spied some trinkets we’d purchase on our return.. My Tip.... After a nosey around the shops head for Princess Margaret Beach...as you come off the said jetty, turn right and keeping the sea to your right following a lovely walkway hugging the shoreline around to PM Beach, some parts of the walk are on a wood decking and there’s stairs up and down/around the cliff side with the right-side dropping to the sea below, it’s a really heavenly 15 minute walk as it’s such a cool setup/design. Once you round the cliff-face you’ll be greeted by this idyllic view of Princess Margaret beach. We continued around the beach and found some sun beds $10 each that were nicely shaded by the trees and while there had a couple of local beers at a very reasonable $2.50 each. It was a truly gorgeous day and we also had an opportunity to use our snorkels as farther along again were some rocky outcrops, which made for perfect snorkelling! There’s also a number of restaurants you can eat at when there... 100% worth a visit..picturesque!!

This excellent beach is one of the highlights of Bequia.
Around a 25 minute walk from the tender jetty and just beyond the slightly more colourful (and busy) Princess Margaret beach. Beach bars, restaurants, etc, at both ends. Another tropical paradise.

The perfect finish to an island tour, with superb views back over Kingstown and the surrounding area, as well as our cruise ship. The fort has been pretty well maintained, and is free to enter.

The Wednesday night jump ups are epic at Basil’s bar. Everyone is so friendly and happy to have a good time. The staff are amazing and the music is epic. It’s also such a great spot to hang out at the beach and enjoy a quick afternoon lunch or snack.
