ST. VINCENT & THE GRENADINES

St. Vincent is one of the major British Windward Islands. There are some white-sand beaches near Kingstown on St. Vincent, but most of the other beaches ringing the island are of black sand.

Populated by the descendants of African slaves and administered by St. Vincent, the Grenadines collectively add up to a land mass of 30 natural resources, but they’re blessed with white-sand beaches, coral reefs and their own kind of sleepy beauty.

The people treat visitors like human beings. Met with courtesy, they respond with courtesy. British customs predominate, along with traces of Gallic cultural influences, but all with a distinct West Indian flair.
