2 Travel adventures Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

Cruise 2025 Caribbean

21 januari - 7 februari 2025 (18 days)

When we arrive at the Owia Salt Pond at the northernmost point of the island, the weather is dry. Under a shelter, the picnic lunch is laid out: chicken, rice, and rum punch. From the parking lot, a staircase with 199 steps leads to the black sand beach. The Owia Salt Pond is a natural saltwater pool. The swimming spot was formed when lava from the La Soufrière volcano flowed into the sea and cooled, creating a basin of volcanic rock fed by the ocean. Joan warned us not to climb on the rocks. The rocks can be slippery, and waves can crash over them. As I go into the sea, the sun breaks through. On the beach, I dry off again.

A Caribbean Cruise

29 februari 2024 - 16 maart 2024 (17 days)

We board the sailing ship Scaramouche. One boat about 25 meters long. We take seats on board in the shade. When we set sail, two passengers are still missing. We return to the quay to bring them on board as well. Under motor, the Scaramouche leaves the bay. Then the captain turns the ship against the wind and hoists the sails. Sailing, we head over the sea toward Bequia. The crew comes by with soft drinks. Behind us, we see Saint Vincent shrinking in the distance and Bequia approaching. After about an hour of sailing, we enter the bay of Port Elisabeth. We moor at the pier. We have some time to explore Port Elisabeth. We walk along the quay and look at the Anglican church. The benches are cheerfully painted light blue.
