Mayreau, Catamaran Cruise, Southern Grenadines, Islands, Islets, Union, Palm & Carriacou Islands

Embark your comfortable catamaran, receive a welcome drink, then sit back and relax for a picturesque, approximately 45-minute cruise to the famous Tobago Cays. Meander through the islands and see the differences between them. A stop is made for a swim at the 'Turtle Spot', an area where carefree turtles roam unabashed by human visitors in their midst.

Horseshoe Reef, Snorkelling, Union Island, Bougainvilla Restaurant, Lunch, Clifton, Walking Tour

Afterward, embark your catamaran and head to Horseshoe Reef for a bit of snorkelling. After receiving your safety instructions and donning your snorkelling gear, explore the colourful coral beds, tropical fish, and marine life in these crystal-clear waters. Following your snorkelling session, embark your catamaran and ride to the 'big' island of Union. Disembark at Union, then proceed for a delightful Caribbean lunch at the Bougainvilla restaurant. After lunch, take a guided stroll through the colourful small town of Clifton, alternately bustling and Caribbean-style sleepy, depending on the arrival of the various ferries.

Palm Island, Swimming, Refreshments

Leaving Union Island, embark your boat again and set sail for the ultra-picturesque Palm Island, a private island-turned-resort named after the hundreds of coconut palm planted by the original owner over 30 years ago. Now owned by a top hotel consortium, it is an exceptional, all-inclusive retreat. Upon arrival, the idyllic white sands beckon you for a swim. Back on board, enjoy complementary rum punch, fruit drinks, and water during the approximately 30-minute ride back to the pier.
