The Ultimate Guide to the Island of St. Vincent

The Caribbean island of St. Vincent is eighteen miles long and eleven miles wide, and it is the northernmost and largest of the thirty-two island chain that is known as the Grenadines. With little development, St. Vincent possesses much of its original natural beauty and provides a very relaxing setting for honeymooners and vacationers alike. St. Vincent's waterfalls, hiking trails, and botanical gardens make it a genuine treat for the eyes, while its fabulous dive sites attract the more adventurous. There are no crowds on St. Vincent, so it is one of the few Caribbean destinations where you can truly get away from it all. Moreover, island-hopping sailing charters afford you the opportunity to explore the Grenadine Islands from St. Vincent on south. Here is the Ultimate Guide to the Caribbean island of St. Vincent.
