It’s just a spot on the map, “invisible” for some, with 18 square kilometers and a population of around 5000. Its capital is Port Elizabeth and the highest summit is Mount Pleasant, 268 meters above sea level.

Considered a paradise-like destination par excellence in the Lesser Antilles, the island has a lot to offer to visitors, no matter where they come from. Locals say that they will fall in love with the site and come back over and over again.

There are some highlights in terms of general view or exclusive attractions. Foreigners can imagine how stunningly beautiful nature is at the Saint Hilaire Point.

Ravine Bay beach is the most famous and frequently visited, which as those on other Caribbean islands stands out for its white and soft sand and almost crystal clear blue waters.

But if access is not easy due to the land’s characteristics, the goal deserves the effort; a prize that, according to Grenadines, only privileged people can win.

Described as a fishermen’s village, the Paget Farm community is a showcase of life in the site and also a food challenge with traditional dishes made of fresh fish.

Bequia also has a small but well-equipped hotel infrastructure that in summer time is not large enough to accommodate all tourists. However, as it is near the rest of the islands they can stay for a day which makes this a very well-known modality.
