Bequia1 of 5

Five+ years have passed since my last visit to Bequia, yet my love for this special little corner of St. Vincent's Grenadines keeps growing stronger.

The former owner of this home atop Mount Pleasant Bequia would've enjoyed a particularly exceptional view – no obstructions of any kind.

As born and bred West Indians, we've had the great fortune to soak in the last sunset of many of our years somewhere in the islands.

Seeing Petit Nevis during my first visit to Bequia, it never would've dawned on me that I was looking at one of the most notorious spots in the Caribbean...

There's a certain avaricious undercurrent to every visit I make to the Grenadines. It's not about food, rum, vile temptresses, or any other such vices.

Guest accommodations in Bequia range from the sublime (Sugar Reef) to the ridiculous (Moonhole). Splitting the difference: Gingerbread Hotel.

For all your yacht provisioning needs in Bequia, plus some authentic West Indian charm and treats, it's the Porthole Rest and Bar and Shoreline Mini Market.

French House at Sugar Reef Bequia is all about romance, perfect for newlyweds, or established couples keen on re-connecting.

Industry Bay, Bequia is not the kind of beach you'd ever find on any major media Top 10 Caribbean Beaches list. That suits me just fine.
