What to do and see in Bequia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines: The Best Things to do Good for Couples
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is a country of 32 beautiful Caribbean islands in the idyllic Caribbean, stretching south from Saint Vincent Island to Grenada. Proud of its French and British colonial history, it is now part of the Commonwealth of Nations and CARICOM. Bequia, pronounced "Beck-way”, is blessed with white sandy beaches, coral reefs, and friendly people. Port Elizabeth is a bustling yachting town. Enjoy yachting, scuba diving and snorkeling over coral reefs. Restaurants on Bequia tend to be small, friendly local enterprises. Try “goat water” soup, Bitter Lemon a popular soda and Hairoun the local brew. The island of St. Vincent, originally named Hairouna by the native Caribs, is relatively small, and its mountainous landscape makes getting around a challenge. Its capital is Kingstown and also its main port. Follow the Vermont Nature Trail and experience the spectacle of more than 500 parrots in flight. Numerous endemic species make this trail their home. Take a stroll along a scenic coastal path and take pleasure in the numerous waterfalls or hike to Fort Charlotte and be amazed by the views. Challenge yourself by a climbing the Soufriere volcano.

The site of a beach that is popular with Bequia tourists.
Reviewed By MarkU850
Nice sand, enough trees along the shore for shade. This seems to be a favorite beach for the locals. Snorkeling is OK, the water is clear, but there are no reefs, so not a lot of diversity in the sea life.
8. Princess Margaret Beach

One of Bequia's most popular beaches.
Reviewed By DJKJO - Greater London, United Kingdom
Now most will have heard of Mustique but not necessarily Bequia (pronounced Bek-way). Both are part of St Vincent and the Grenadines, a sovereign state comprising 32 islands 11 inhabited. The island of Bequia was going to be a beach day for us and what a beautiful day it was too!! We took the tender from our cruise ship into Port Elizabeth greeted by the sign at the end of the jetty....Welcome to Bequia???? We had a wonder around the shops/stalls and spied some trinkets we’d purchase on our return.. My Tip.... After a nosey around the shops head for Princess Margaret Beach...as you come off the said jetty, turn right and keeping the sea to your right following a lovely walkway hugging the shoreline around to PM Beach, some parts of the walk are on a wood decking and there’s stairs up and down/around the cliff side with the right-side dropping to the sea below, it’s a really heavenly 15 minute walk as it’s such a cool setup/design. Once you round the cliff-face you’ll be greeted by this idyllic view of Princess Margaret beach. We continued around the beach and found some sun beds $10 each that were nicely shaded by the trees and while there had a couple of local beers at a very reasonable $2.50 each. It was a truly gorgeous day and we also had an opportunity to use our snorkels as farther along again were some rocky outcrops, which made for perfect snorkelling! There’s also a number of restaurants you can eat at when there... 100% worth a visit..picturesque!!

Around a 25 minute walk from the tender jetty and just beyond the slightly more colourful (and busy) Princess Margaret beach. Beach bars, restaurants, etc, at both ends. Another tropical paradise.
