Mustique
Mustique is essentially composed of seven valleys, each
with a deserted white sand beach, fringed by palm and coconut
trees surrounded by a series of coral reefs. Whilst famous
for it’s ‘celebrity homeowners’ and visitors, it is truly
an island paradise. One that will make you return again
and again.
There is a fine stable of thoroughbred horses for a gallop
along the beach. Also wonderful hiking and nature trails,
sailing, scuba diving, water sports and tennis. Most of
all, unspoilt peace and tranquility.
Mustique's claim to fame is a relatively new development.
The 1,400 acre island was developed by British and international
investors in the early 1970s. Today, it operates as a private
company, appropriately called The Mustique company, which
overseas the infrastructure of the island for its shareholders,
who obtain their piece of paradise in the Caribbean by building
a villa on the island.
British royalty and famous celebrities put the island on
the map with regular visits by Mick Jagger, David Bowie,
Elton John, Tommy Hilfiger and other villa owners and regular
guests.
It is a 1 - 2 hour sail to Mustique from Bequia. A great
day out to explore another of the Grenadine Islands.
