Situated between the seemingly endless Atlantic Ocean and the beautiful blue of the Caribbean Sea, St. Vincent measures 133 sq. miles and lies just north of Trinidad and Tobago while Grenadines measures approx 20-40 sq. miles only. The capital city of St. Vincent’s is called Kingstown and its botanic gardens are well worth a visit. Apart from the local French Patois, English is also widely spoken here with Anglican, Roman Catholic and some Methodist crowds totaling the local population’s major denominations here.

The Eastern Caribbean dollar, which is the local official currency here has been fixed to the U.S. dollar and makes for easy shopping and conversion for visitors who should remember that local tipping recommendations on St. Vincent’s and the Grenadines is typically 10 to 15%. June to November being the hurricane season is best avoided but other months are favorable for tourists who like to enjoy the sunny climate of 81 degrees averaged annually.

As mentioned earlier, the most popular tourist activity for foreigners visiting St. Vincent is the fantastic opportunity for sailing around the Grenadines, which is made up of many tiny islands together spanning a 40-mile-long strip dotted in places by white sandy beaches girding turquoise blue oceanic waters.

Many tourists charter a yacht, but if you find that taking the local ferry works out more affordable and enjoyable for you, the option is always available for sailing from one island here to another and is a popular one too.

On reaching a particular island like St. Vincent for example, you can alight and hike or enjoy a leisurely walk around lush natural greenery covered areas that house extinct volcanoes, old hilly settlements, and active volcano La Soufrière, besides tour the rainforest, or even picnic at Trinity Falls or Falls of Baleine for a great holiday of your choice – in your budget.
