St Vincent And The Grenadines | The Caribbean Best Kept Secret

  • On my recent visit to the beautiful island of St Vincent and the Grenadines I can totally see why St Vincent is the Caribbean's best kept secret. Such a beautiful, mountainous island surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. And the fact that it’s not an all-inclusive colony packed with big hotels, makes it easier to access local culture and socialize with the locals. I was able to truly discover the beauty of SVG.

    I enjoyed the video. You got one thing wrong. SVG is not expensive at all. You showed all the imported goods and of course that’s going to cost more. In any country you MUST learn to shop like the locals by buying local products and produce. For instance buy dry goods like rice, flour and corn meal in a plastic bag without a label. Of course fish is fresh daily and the prices are excellent. Let’s not mention rent/mortgage is far less than Canada, the UK and the US.
    I’m from America and quickly learned to buy produce and most things from the street vendors, and not in the supermarkets.
    Loved the video and keep up the good work. ❤

      St Vincent and the Grenadines is relatively safe. Most of the crimes that happen is among people who know each other. The only downside I would see is if you are a party hopping person we aren’t to big in that. We aren’t like the DR and those fast paced place many like to visit.
      If you are looking to a quiet place to decompress from the hustle and bustle of the western world and those touristy countries. St Vincent and the Grenadines is it. If you love nature St Vincent and the Grenadines. If you like organic food St Vincent and the Grenadines. If you want to visit a country and have the whole beach to yourself St Vincent and the Grenadines.
