How do I get to Bequia?
                                2018 International flights direct to Argyle international Airport in St Vincent
            AA from Miami starting December 2018. Air Canada Rouge weekly flights. Caribbean Air from NYC.


Alternative routes to Bequia involve a stop at another country, Barbados and St Lucia are the most convenient, and then an onward flight either direct to Bequia or via St Vincent.

​If you are flying with LIAT to St Vincent and arriving after 6.00pm you will need to overnight as the last ferry leaves for Bequia at 6.00pm. The Cobblestone Inn in Kingstown is situated very near the ferry dock which makes for an easy hop onto the ferry the next morning. If you prefer to overnight closer to the airport (it's approximately a 45 minute taxi ride from airport to ferry) have a look at Blue Lagoon, Beachcombers and Mariners 

Airlines from North America : JetBlue from Boston, NYC and Fort Lauderdale, American Airlines from Miami, US Air from Charlotte, NC, Air Canada and Westjet from Toronto

From the UK and Europe: British Airways and Virgin Atlantic from Gatwick. Thomson also offer flights from Manchester. I can recommend  Newmont Travel for flights.

Connecting flights from Barbados (BGI) and St Lucia (UVF) direct to Bequia with SVG Air, Air Mustique and One Caribbean. If you need help booking either of these just let me know. As of 2017 the quoted Barbados to Bequia return flight for passengers connecting on the same day is approximately U$525.00 per person.

NEW FOR 2017: Fly One Caribbean - connecting flights to Bequia from Barbados and St Lucia. For more routes and details visit www.flyonecaribbean.com

Connecting flights from the Caribbean region with LIAT

From St Vincent: via ferry service offered by Admiralty Transport and Bequia Express

Yes. We can arrange for individual instruction for anyone who feels they would benefit from one-on-one attention, for example, young children and anxious but keen beginners who don't want to feel that they are holding others up. You may also arrange with our instructor to teach in your own pool.
All private courses are taught by Cathy. Cathy has been a PADI Instructor since 1997 and has taught thousands of Discover Scuba sessions and other entry level courses. Having taught her daughter to dive starting at age 8 with a Bubblemaker course and progressing through courses to certifying her as a Master Scuba Diver at 12, Cathy has excellent experience with teaching children.
