Water and sports on Bequia (0 viewing) 
The island's enduring seafaring heritage is one of its most striking features. Virtually every Bequia family has some connection to the sea either past or present, and today's fishermen, sailors and boat-builders are quietly proud to share their marine traditions with newcomers to the island.

Water and sports on Bequia 1 Year, 1 Month ago  
St. Vincent & the Grenadines is a true diver's paradise, and diving in Bequia is rated by many as amongst the very best in the Caribbean.
There are over 30 excellent and easily accessible sites in the sparklingly clear waters around the island or within easy reach, offering drift dives with intriguing caverns and holes, walls and overhangs, all teeming with wonderful coral formations and marine life. For the more experienced diver, exciting wreck and night dives are also available.


For those seeking a slightly less adventurous but no less fascinating experience, snorkelling trips are offered by all Bequia's Dive Shops, with equipment available for hire or purchase. There is a glorious underwater world just waiting to be discovered...

With the Trade Winds providing almost year-round breezes, and brisk winds in the winter, Bequia offers great conditions for windsurfers. In the calm beach shallows on the leeward side, kayaking is also a popular pastime.

Windsurfers and kayaks are available for rent from several outlets, and lessons can also be arranged. Ask at your hotel or guest house.
