Bequia Island & Beaches

Listed under Beaches in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Rated 5th of all Beaches in the world.

Bequia, which means "island in the clouds," is the kind of ethereal beach escape that most people dream of. The peaceful waters also have some of the best sailing conditions in the world and are a yacht magnet.

With several beaches, such as the secluded Moonhole and the palm tree-laden Spring Bay, Bequia has a beach with the entertainments, or lack of, to suit everyone. Take a trip to the erroneously named Industry Bay, which in fact has no industry at all, only a warm, sandy beach and waters that are great for snorkeling.

The beautiful sands of Bequia

Bequia is a true beach island paradise! Princess Margaret Beach is accessible by water taxi. Just tell the sailor what time you want to be picked up and he will come back. The sand is soft the water crystal clear and warm. The best thing is that you feel alone there, there are no crowds. There is a lady selling local goods, but that's it.
