Margaret beach
Ultimate guide (November 2024)
Margaret is the best beach on
Bequia island in the Grenadines. There are no palms, but a lot of trees provide great shade. Entry into the water is smooth, and there are no stones or broken corals on the bottom. There is
Jack's Bar with sunbeds rental, as well as some locals giving you almost the same service, but for less money. However, no one sticks to tourists with annoying offers. Usually the place is rather secluded, and only catamarans in the bay slightly spoil the view. However, when a cruise ship is in the port, it becomes relatively crowded. Shore and seabed: sand.
