GRENADINES ITINERARY
We leave Tampa sat AM and will be in St Vincent scuba diving and such from Sat nite to Monday afternoon when we get on the boat. We are staying at the Lagoon Hotel during that time. Then we sail Tuesday to Bequia, then from there we will head south and be hanging around the area of Canouan, Tobago Cays, Palm Island and Union Island for several days -- no precise plan, just depends what we find and what we like -- it is all terrific. We are supposed to meet up with Ron and Liz and their little crew around the 20th as they sail out of Canouan that day. Iain and Sue get off the boat Sunday the 23rd in Canouan, and then the remaining 6 of us will start working our way back north to Bequia and back to St Vincent on the 26th. The distances are small -- only a total of 35 miles from the St Vincent down to Union Island at the southern most part of the Grenadines, so sailing between the islands ranges from about an hour to the longest of about 2.5 hours. Then we stay 2 nites again at the Lagoon before we fly back to Tampa on the 28th. We will shoot lots of pix I am sure -- above and below the water.
Right now it is 84 degrees there during the day and mid-70's at nite, winds 14 knots from the NE that puts us on a reach pretty much every way we go either North or Southward.
Here is a link you might enjoy checking out our sailing grounds!

I think Tobago Cays is my best idea of relaxation! ===> GRENADINES LINK
