Grenada to St Lucia

Palm Island's Casurina Beach is one of the most sensational in all of the Windward Islands. It is a gorgeous ribbon of golden sand lapped by translucent turquoise water, making it the ultimate in 'picture-perfect' Caribbean beaches.
Colourful marine life abounds with shallow water reefs making an adventure below the surface a spectacular journey that can only be found in the beautiful turquoise waters of the Grenadines.
With everything from frogfish, seahorses, colourful molluscs, crustaceans, anemones and tunicates, divers will be excited by the variety of marine creatures to see. Other underwater friends include nurse sharks, lobsters, octopus and squid.

Petit St Vincent is a tiny resort island surrounded with endless reefs and the stunning blue waters of Caribbean. It is a perfect opportunity to jump into the inviting waters for a snorkelling or dive trip. The Mopion Reef is a drift dive with an average depth of approximately 50ft, a beautiful reef dive with a smorgasbord of wildlife ranging from lobsters, Moray eels, and nudibranchs as well as the potential of encountering Caribbean reef sharks or catching a nurse shark sleeping in the sand.
The more adventurous may enjoy a hike to the top of the hill to take in views of the Tobago Cays archipelago.

Tobago Cays and the Tobago Cays Marine Park are two of the world's most awe inspiring island destinations. The pure and natural charm of these places looks like something straight off a postcard, which is why it was chosen as one of the backdrops for 'The Pirates of the Caribbean' movie.
A tranquil yachting anchorage, a dream descent for scuba divers and snorkellers, and an endless paradise for beachcombers - this intimate cluster of five uninhabited cays offers heavenly lagoons full of green turtles, coral reefs, colourful fish, and crystal clear waters. If the Grenadines archipelago were a necklace, the Tobago Cays would be its jewelled pendant.

Cruise to stunning Mayreau island by tender.
Together with the Tobago Cays, Mayreau is a fantastic destination for scuba divers and snorkelers. The offshore reef systems come under the protection of the Tobago Cays Marine Park and are full of life and colour. Hard and soft corals, sponges, sea fans and a myriad of reef fish can all be seen on these formations together with green turtles, nurse sharks and occasional reef sharks. Look out for squadrons of eagle rays and even the occasional manta ray in these waters!
The island has several excellent white sand beaches that are great for soaking up the sun, swimming or having a picnic.

Mustique had a colourful history before it ended up with the Mustique Company. In the fifteenth century, it was first sighted by Spanish sailors, who named the group of islands containing Mustique: 'Los Pajoros' or 'The Birds.' It was later renamed The Grenadines by pirates in the seventeenth century, who used the sheltered bays to hide their ships and treasure. In the nineteenth century, European sugar beet planters took over the island before abandoning it, leaving the ghost town to be swallowed by the jungle. Today, Mustique retains its natural beauty and tranquillity.
But Mustique is more than just its history. It has a fantastic selection of beaches, snorkelling, scuba diving sites, and luxury hotels, including the renovated former plantation, 'Cotton House'.

Explore the coast of St Vincent and discover some of the more secluded beaches, bays and shallow snorkelling sites. An unforgettable trip is to the Falls of Baleine in the very north of the island. This 35ft waterfall tumbles into a rock-lined pool and is a unique natural attraction. Expansive shallow reef diving, wall diving, drift diving, wreck diving and even cave diving are just some of the opportunities available to both novices and the more experienced divers.
The oldest botanical garden in the Americas is located in its capital, Kingstown. More tropical botany can be enjoyed just outside the town in the Marriaqua Valley where banana, nutmeg, cocoa, coconut, and breadfruit are grown on plantations.
For many, a hiking trip to St Vincent would not be complete without a visit to the summit of the awe-inspiring La Soufriere volcano.

Combining total relaxation and a whole lot of fun, the volcanic island of St Lucia is covered in lush vegetation. Its dramatic twin coastal peaks, the Pitons, soar 2,000ft up from the sea, sheltering magnificent rain forests where wild orchids, giant ferns, and birds of paradise flourish. Brilliantly-plumed tropical birds abound, including endangered species like the indigenous St. Lucia parrot. The rainforest is broken only by verdant fields and orchards of banana, coconut, mango, and papaya trees.
The island's steep coastlines and lovely reefs offer excellent snorkelling and scuba diving. The rainforest preserves of St. Lucia's mountainous interior are one of the Caribbean's finest locales for hiking and birdwatching.
Not to be missed is St. Lucia's Soufriere volcano, the world's only drive-in volcanic crater.
