Attractions

Small bays and coves, most with long sweeping white sand beaches, surround Canouan Island. They are pristine and a few are a challenge to access. The island is partially surrounded by the coral reef on the Atlantic side, which adds protection to many of the beaches. Endless expanses of fine sand, its gleaming white in dramatic contrast to the strong colours of the luxuriant vegetation and tropical sea await those who seek a solitary encounter with nature.

Adventures

Canouan Dive center is based in Grand Bay close to the Tamarind Beach Hotel. Both scuba divers and snorkellers can enjoy the splendors under the sea of the pristine islands, coral reef and even wrecks.

Currency

Canouan uses the local Eastern Caribbean Dollars (EC$).
