Mustique

Okay so this place is the epitome of Paradise. Mustique is a private island in the Caribbean archipelago nation of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. This Island has beautiful white-sand beaches and is covered with lush green landscape. There is a small village in Britannia Bay with two adorable, colorful houses. These contain a little Boutique, a Market and and Ice cream shop. (See photos below)   

As for animals, there are a few Island dogs and cats although they are all taken great care of, so no reason to be sad by this, They roam the Island during the day but most have collars and all are well fed and bathed. The Island is also covered in tortoises 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢 We found a baby tortoise living in our garden (Pictures below) and the locals told us they enjoy fruit so if you continue down the page you will find a video of 2 baby turtles eating a banana slice.

And as promised...

Also I am OBSESSED with sea turtles. I think they are the most magical creatures, and if you head to Britannia Bay in the morning and bring some snorkeling gear or at least googles you can swim with them! You have to swim about 25-40 feet out to see them. 

The most popular beach is Macaroni Beach, this is the beach I am walking on in my first slide show (scroll up). The water is crystal clear and light blue while and the sand is white and soft. You can have lunch at one of the tables which I highly recommend. 

Basil's Bar is the main bar where everyone goes. It was just renovated and looks brand new and clean but still has that "beachy" vibe. They also serve food here and the Fish Tacos are awesome. 

Fun Facts:  

  1.  Many celebs and famous people vacation and own houses in Mustique. It is one of the reasons this island has gained so much attention. Mick Jagger was casually hanging out at Basil's one of the nights we were there.
