One idea that comes to mind is Grenada. It has that off the beaten path charm, with stunning beaches like Grand Anse, awesome local culture, and fewer crowds than the more commercialized islands. Plus, the island’s spice plantations and nature give you more to explore beyond the beach.

Barbados is another great option. It’s easy to navigate, has a solid mix of swimmable beaches and wild surf spots, and the restaurant scene is genuinely impressive. You can stay on the calmer west coast or head to the south for a livelier vibe.

We have traveled many times and chartered a cat in the BVI, but this will be our first visit to St Vincent and the Grenadines. Staying a few days on Bequia at Bequia Beach, Cat for 6 days through the Grenadines, and last couple days on Granada at Mount Cinnamon. Any ideas on what not to miss? Enjoy light hiking/exploring, beach bars, live music, local flare. Thanks in advance.
