Bequia Tourism
Association:
The tiny island of Bequia has a unique, magical charm which is hard to find anywhere else
in the Caribbean. With fewer than six thousand inhabitants, it feels like home from the
moment you arrive; friendliness is the watchword, and the pace is relaxed and easy-going.
Bequia Beach Club:
Ten charming and quaint beachside rooms lie within a quiet garden, cheerfully welcoming
you after a snooze beneath a surfside palm tree or a hard day's sail in the bay.
Bequia Dive Adventures:
A full service PADI Dive Centre conveniently located on the harbour walk in Belmont, a few
steps from numerous excellent guest houses, small hotels and restaurants.
Bequia Ferry Service:
A fun way to arrive in Bequia is by local ferry boat departing from the nation's capital,
Kingstown, on St. Vincent. Allow 15-20 minutes from E.T.
Joshua airport to the ferry pier in Kingstown.
Bequia Gingerbread Hotel:
Centrally located on Admiralty Bay, Bequia's wide and gentle harbour, Gingerbread Hotel is

country inn with tropical gardens on a 30 acre estate; overlooking dozens of islands in

almost a century ago.
