Kingstown, St. Vincent, St. Vincent and the Grenadines

The volcanic island of St. Vincent offers a diverse array of natural wonders. Waterfalls cascade down cliffs into tranquil pools surrounded by lush green interior. Botanical gardens reveal the island’s history and natural beauty. Hike the Vermont Nature Trail in search of the rare St. Vincent parrot, or head to remote Wallilabou Bay, where scenes from the movie Pirates of the Caribbean were filmed. Hop the ferry to the nearby yachting paradise of Bequia and relax on the golden sands of Princess Margaret Beach, or stay on St. Vincent and take in the views from Fort Charlotte, a 19th-century British fortress. Whatever you choose, be sure to try the local breadfruit, introduced here by Captain Bligh of HMS Bounty fame.
