St Vincent and the Grenadines / Special Interests / Beach

St Vincent and the Grenadines offers a wide range of beaches to choose from, from the powder-white sand beaches that adorn the pretty islands and cays to the picturesque black sand beaches that fringe the windward coast on the main island of St Vincent.
              
On St Vincent itself, Indian Bay and Villa beaches are popular along the south coast. Beachcombers Hotel is set on Villa Beach, facing Young Island where the island resort has a lovely white sand beach. More secluded beaches which are all black sand include Richmond Beach, Mt Wynne, and Petit Byahaut on the leeward coast.  At Buccament Bay Beach the developers of Buccament Bay Resort have created a white sand beach for guest use. Sandy Bay and Black Point Beach are fabulous windward coast beaches.
 
Princess Margaret Beach and Lower Bay Beach are great beaches on the leeward coast of Bequia in Admiralty Bay where there are a number of small hotels, guest houses and villas  Another popular beach on Bequia is Friendship Bay a long stretch of white sand beach on the windward coast where Bequia Beach Hotel and Bequia Beachfront Villas are.
 
Macaroni Bay is perhaps Mustique’s most famous stretch of white sand, though there are also great beaches at L’Ansecoy Bay where there are several beachfront villas, Lagoon Bay, Endeavour Bay where the Cotton House is located, and Gelliceaux Bay.

The private island resorts of Petit St Vincent and Palm Island each feature lovely white sand beaches.  Over on Mayreau, Saltwhistle Bay hotel resides over a truly magnificent sweep of bright white sand. 
 
Canouan Resort (former Rafflles) and the Grenadines Estate preside over a series of impressive beaches with calm water on Carenage Bay, with a new hotel on Godahl Beach. Over on the west coast, Tamarind Beach Hotel & Yacht Club sits on a classic palm fringed curve of white sand, on Grand Bay.
