Saint Vincent and the Grenadines are an independent archipeligo of islands and is probably thesecond most common place to charter in the Island chain after the British Virgins.
Going south from St. Lucia we usually run downwind straight to charming Bequia. Further south, Mustique is an island of British and Rock 'n Roll Royalty then go for a couple of days snorkeling behind the reef surrounding Tobago Cays. Either before or after your Tobago Cays stay, visit Mayreau. A very small island with a lovely church and a few restaurants, Mayreau has a picture perfect, palm lined anchorage at Salt Whistle Bay. Unfortunately it is always packed with charter boats. Try Saline Bay. Funky Union Island at either Clifton for customs and shopping or Chatham Bay for tranquility. A nice stop at Petite St. Vincent and a dinner at Palm Beach on PM makes the southern most mark. Going back north progress is a little slower so we stop in Canoaun (not in the windy Charlestown Bay but further north at Rameau. From charming Bequia you can ferry over to party HQ at Young Island Cut.on the "mainland". We prefer to take the boat to Petite Byahaut is a small, beautiful bay with limited moorings. A stop in Wallilabou to see the "Pirates of the Caribbean" set or in Chateaubelair or Cumberland before braving the winds up to the Pitons in St. Lucia.
The boat boys of St. Vincent and of Union are a little more aggressive and the sailing a bit more boiserous than in the BVI, but the beauty of the place makes it worth while.
