We have been having a very busy time since saying goodbye to Becky . With the crew of Angus , Bridget , Jenny and Stu . We continued north to Tyrell Bay on Cariaque. Where we spent a happy night went ashore to a beach bar and had red snapper and chips for supper . We hoped to stop at Sandy Island again were we had good snorkelling . Unfortunately the weather didn’t agree so we continued on Petite Martinique . Where we had swims , chicken and chips on the beach for supper at Gigi beach barb. Next day we scaled the pieton from where you can see right down to Grenada via the wonderfully named island Kick Um Jenny . A rock which has an under water volcano near it and is a no go area. This was our exit point from Grenada and the southern grenadines. So moving across to Union Island to Clifton where we were able to sign into St Vincent . This is a relatively small anchorage with lots of pick up buoys and not much space to anchor either side of a reef . So a quick trip ashore inevitably the office was shut so a few beers and chips later the hour before we checked in and all cleared we left for Petite St Vincent . Beautiful but unfortunately very private and we were politely asked to remain on the Sandy beach and not stray into the interior.””




Rather flaunting the immigration rules as strictly we had signed out of Grenada who own the island . As they were celebrating independence and had a visit from the president we hoped they wouldn’t notice! All well we again scaled the piton but the views were severely restricted by cloud. So left for Petite St Vincent and legality .
Sadly the weather wasn’t very kind so Tobago Cays was ruled out and we headed for Saltwhistle bay on Mayarou . Great spot
