The Grenadines

Destination information

If you've ever imagined your perfect desert island, the chances are, you would find it in The Grenadines. A jewel-like string of 100 tiny islands and cays which stretches out across the Caribbean Sea between St Vincent and Grenada, this virtually untouched paradise offers an unbeatable combination of crystal-clear waters, pristine white-sand beaches and luxurious, welcoming accommodation. Such clear seas are home to some spectacular stretches of coral reef, so diving and snorkelling are an incredible experience. In fact, water plays a big part in the types of activities you'll find in this island paradise. Sailors and yachtsmen drop anchor here regularly, and you can join in with your own experiences by chartering a private skippered yacht to sail from island to cay in blissful comfort while someone else does the hard work! We've picked 2 of the best islands for you - Palm and Canouan, both of which offer luxurious accommodation coupled with unrivalled service. Here you'll rediscover the simple pleasures - watching the sun set slowly over the far horizon, eating freshly caught, barbecued seafood, chatting over a bottle of wine with new friends.
