Located 90 miles west of Barbados, St Vincent and the Grandaines are part of an archipelago of 32 islands and cays known as “the Jewels of the Caribbean”. St Vincent is an enchanting paradise, an authentic and unspoilt tropical haven with secluded coves and spectacular backdrops of high mountain peaks and valleys cloaked in lush tropical forest with cascading waterfalls.
Among the top locations in the world for diving, snorkelling, and sailing. The clear, warm waters surrounding the islands are home to an amazing underwater world with pristine coral reefs teeming with a magnificent abundance of colourful marine life. Diving ranges from gentle to exhilarating with an infinite selection of wall diving sites, wrecks, caves and caverns to explore. Snorkel in the turquoise waters of Tobago Cays, just a short boat ride away, and float among the hawksbill turtles and observe the wonderful variety of inhabitants of the Horseshoe Reef, from octopus, scorpion fish, spotted moray and queen angel fish.
Both Islands experience a tropical climate with little seasonal temperature variation averaging 27°c; average daily sunshine is 8–9 hours with seasonal rainfall between May and November.
