Bequia is the northernmost and largest of the Grenadines, just seven square miles of quiet lagoons, reefs, and long silvery stretches of beach. Among the first things you notice are the colorful model boats set up on stands around the tiny harbor, representing the island's maritime history. The yacht anchors at Port Elizabeth and offers you a scenic land adventure as well as sport fishing and a trip to the neighboring island of Mystique. If you are lucky enough to have a late call, don’t miss Mac’s Lobster Pizza.

Optional Activities: 

Port Elizabeth - Scenic Bequia: This land adventure begins with a scenic drive through parts of Port Elizabeth, the island's quaint little town with its vegetable market and souvenir stalls, and up to Mt. Pleasant which offers a marvelous view of your yacht, the wider Caribbean Sea, and the surrounding Grenadine Islands. For this stop your camera is a must-have as the view leaves you breathless. The adventure then continues up the Atlantic Coast with its alternating ocean views and beautiful roadside floral scenery as you make your way to the Old Hegg Turtle Sanctuary. Mr. Orton G. King, owner of this sanctuary, has spent most of his time tending to his precious and endangered hawksbill turtles. Listen to him spin tales of these ancient inhabitants of the deep. Make a brief stop at the Whaleboner bar and screen-printing shop where you may be lucky to see the artists at work. Try your hand at the technique and watch beautiful patterns emerge on the fabric.

Port Elizabeth - Unique Mustique: Mustique lies 5 miles from Bequia and measures 3 miles by 1 ½. The island is privately owned and has long attracted the elite of the world which includes the British Royalty. Mustique has a perfect blend of simplicity, comfort, and sophistication that appeal to its cosmopolitan clientele. From the sandy shores of Bequia, board your private catamaran for a scenic ride to Mustique for a day of relaxation. As you go along you no doubt notice some rather unusual homes set in amazing natural rock formations and arches known as ‘The Moon Hole”. Also pass the historic whaling island of Petit Nevis. Upon arrival at Mustique, enjoy a slow panoramic ride along the coast while your knowledgeable guide points out where the luxurious houses of the rich and famous can be seen including Ralph Lauren and Sir Paul McCartney. Enjoy the view of the azure-blue seas from their terrace while you indulge in this spectacular meal. If you do not wish to stay at the Cotton House, you can also simply be driven back to Basil’s Bar which also features a beautiful beach for swimming and very friendly staff. Across the street from Basil’s Bar find two quaint boutiques filled with hand-made souvenirs and other items. After your self-made adventure, return to your catamaran for a complimentary glass of rum punch, the journey back to Bequia, and your awaiting yacht.

These 'picture-perfect' tiny islands are surrounded by magnificent coral reefs and known for their pretty beaches and incredible snorkeling. Tobago Cays are uninhabited and reachable only by boat. Upon arrival, use the aft ladder for independent swimming and snorkeling. Continue on through the islands of the Southern Grenadines.
