Safety Tips

St. Vincent and the Grenadines are generally safe. Kingstown (capital) requires more caution than the quieter Grenadines. Standard precautions apply. The Grenadines attract yacht charters and are very secure.

Culture & Travel Tips

Best Time to Visit

December to May is dry season with ideal sailing conditions. June to November is wetter and includes hurricane season. The Grenadines are south of the main hurricane belt, making them relatively protected.

Cultural Notes

Vincentian culture blends African, British, and Carib heritage. Vincy Mas (Carnival) in July is vibrant. The Black Carib (Garifuna) heritage is important. Boat-building traditions continue in Bequia.

Insider Tips

Island-hopping is the key experience here. Ferries and small planes connect the islands. Mustique is exclusive (royalty and celebrities); Bequia is charming and accessible; Tobago Cays is pristine for snorkeling. Book ahead in peak season.
