    ST. VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES ST VINCENT AND There is nowhere more romantic than the tranquil natural setting THE GRENADINES of thirty two unspoiled islands in the secluded southern Caribbean. I have chosen St. Vincent and the Grenadines to renew my vows after thirty years of marriage with Dara on Mopion - a tiny sand bar near Petit St. Vincent. I will be broadcasting from Young Island, a private island resort located 200 yards south of the main island of St. Vincent. But during my visit I’ll be enjoying one of the exciting twists that a trip to St. Vincent and the Grenadines has to offer - island hopping! So I’ll also be visiting Bequia, Union Island, Canouan, Tobago Cays and Petit St. Vincent. St. Vincent and the Grenadines boasts the best of what the authentic Caribbean is renowned for: pristine white sand beaches; tranquil waters for exceptional diving, sailing and snorkeling; a lush, varied topography for soft adventure activities; private island retreats for couples; historic sites that unveil a colorful culture; many options for destination weddings and honeymoons - which Dara and I will experience for ourselves. The main island is St. Vincent, and only eight islands are inhabited. Virtually undeveloped compared to many popular island destinations - this is the Caribbean before mass tourism. St. Vincent and the Grenadines have a unique, laidback authenticity, friendly people and pristine natural attractions. Discover stunning white sand beaches, coral reefs, flowered hillsides and tranquil harbors. One of the best snorkeling and diving areas in the world, Tobago Cays is a horseshoe shaped reef shielding five deserted islets.
