One of the most striking impressions of St Vincent and the Grenadines is gained from the air when flying between St Vincent and the other islands . You behold a breathtaking panorama of the sea in a multitude of shades of green , turquoise and blue dotted here and there , with islands of varying sizes frequently enveloped by white sandy beaches . Although much in demand by yachtsmen and favoured by the aristocracy , St Vincent and the Grenadines in particular are quite off the beaten track and uncommercial . St Vincent is a lush , tropical , mountainous island of fishing villages , bananas and coconuts , where most of the beaches comprise of black volcanic sand . The Grenadines islands each have their own character too . Bequia in particular is charming , relaxed and very pretty ; with gingerbread houses , flamboyant trees and bougainvillaea , it caters well for the visitor . Canouan is still quite natural and is only just starting to be developed . Petit St Vincent and Palm Island to a great extent are both occupied exclusively by the hotels we feature . The Grenadines provide an away-from-it-all holiday destination with glorious natural scenery and great sailing and snorkelling opportunities .
