Weekend Getaway In The Caribbean | |
As giant pillars standing guard at both ends of The Grenadines, one finds the volcanic islands of Grenada and St. Vincent. Mountainous rain forests, fresh water falls, and tropical flowers, spices, and fruits abound. Visit native markets or swim in the inviting waters. Arriving to St Vincent, it is a short hop south to Bequia, a historic whaling island. Craftsmen proudly display replicas of the whaling boats still used today, there is a turtle preserve, and famous Admiralty Bay retains the beachfront charm of a quiet village. Mustique is next on your voyage. With indescribable villa homes, it is truly "lifestyles of the rich and famous". Tour the island or do some celebrity watching at Basil's Bar perched on pilings over the water. Or, of course, just play in the water! Cruising further one can stop at a multitude of islands, scattered down the island chain like the pomegranite seeds for which The Grenadines are named, Canouan, Union, Petite St. Vincent, Palm Island, and Carricou all have much to offer. The Tobago Cays are the pinnacle of beauty both in and above the water, and not to be missed. Hover while snorkeling over lazy sea rays drifting along in the gentle current, or glide along the rim of the reef and see colorful fish and sea life in their natural homes. Air departures can be scheduled from Canouan, Union or the big island of Grenada. To arrange your weekend getaway in the Caribbean, please contact us.
