LEONA

The trips:
St. Vincent and the Grenadines, part of the Windward Islands, is one of the most unspoiled, beautiful and fascinating spots on earth. This very accessible archipelago of enchanting islands offers a rare chance to enjoy the very best of Caribbean peace and tranquility. Depending on weather and the length of your planned stay, Thomas and Dominique will work together to create an itinerary that will make your dreams come true.

You can get to St-Vincent and the Grenadines by air from North America and Europe through Barbados, Grenada, Martinique, St. Lucia, Puerto Rico and Trinidad with connections to Union, Canouan and Bequia – contact us for assistance.

Activities include sailing between islands, discovering the islands, snorkeling, scuba diving, hiking, steel-band parties, and ..... simply doing nothing and relaxing. Thomas and Dominique will let you discover all these beautiful islands such as the TOBAGO CAYS, a group of small deserted islands, a National Marine Park, protected from the sea by Horseshoe Reef.  The water and reef colours are a kaleidoscope of turquoise, green, deep blue, gold and brown.  Below the surface lies an amazing underwater world of exotic tropical fish of all colours, shapes, and sizes as you enjoy some of the best snorkeling and diving in the world. Most islands have their own scuba diving centres and outfitters (reservations can be made directly with the outfitter; price not included with the yacht package).
