4 out of 15 - Mustique Island, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

Lenght: 5 km. Width: 2.5 km.

Tourists visiting the Grenadines archipelago can look past the picturesque private island of Mustique. The length of the wonderfully beautiful island forms about 5 km, and the width - 2.5 km. Surrounded by lush tropical forests, the area is about 5.7 sq km. And is of volcanic origin. One of the main features of the island is its unique warm climate.

Thanks to its unique location, there are never any strong hurricanes on the island's surface. These favorable conditions have contributed to the planting of the extensive orchards. At the moment, there are only three tiny villages on the isle criterion. Around 800 people live on Mustique. In 1958 the island was bought by the rich Scottish Baron Colin Tennant. He has ensured that the unique ecological system of the tropical island has been preserved. On the order of the Baron it was permitted to erect not more than 114 houses on the island. It is forbidden to pave the streets and build houses higher than tree tops.

Although it has been many years ago, all the baron's references were strictly observed. On the island you can really only find 114 buildings. With the development of the tourist infrastructure, all the modern supply lines were laid out on the island, but all of them are hidden under the earth and therefore do not hurt the natural splendor. On the island there are no big hotels with a hectic atmosphere. At the disposal of the holidaymakers are the picturesque villas, the splendid beaches and the unique restaurants - the pride of the peculiar Mustique island.

Top destination around Mustique Island - Grenadines

There is a very nice and quiet bay with a shallow reef in the picturesque village of Chateaubelair. It will be nice to sunbathe in the lush tropical vegetation. Most of the holidaymakers are diverse. Since the reef is shallow, this stretch of coast is ideal for the beginners of diving. However, many people prefer to admire the beauty of the underwater world, equipped with flippers and mask. Despite the fact that the beach has no gastronomy and other entertainment venues, it is very popular among the tourists.
The location of the magnificent coral reef is also Petite Bahot Bay. The length of the bay is about 40 meters. This beautiful reef is also shallow, so it is easy to explore with scuba diving. The main feature of the reef is a huge variety of rare species of corals and sea sponges.

Novice divers and those who wish to enjoy the natural harmony should pay attention to the miniature Troumaka Bay . The conditions for snorkeling are perfect here. There is an incredibly beautiful tropical forest near the bay. The island has fabulous beaches with dark volcanic sand. One of the most popular among them is the Argyle beach.
