An escape to some winter sun always sounds tempting this time of year as the nights draw in and temperatures drop, so where better to escape to than the Caribbean? Holidays mean taking time for yourself, finding space to unwind, and also breaking away from the humdrum of daily life to explore new places, cultures, and experiences. For some people, the latter is the most important part, creating crammed itineraries full of activities, sightseeing, tours and maybe the odd workout. The Caribbean, however, may not be a destination you’ve considered for that kind of holiday, but think again.
Often pigeonholed as a beach holiday destination, the Caribbean is more than just lounging on a sunbed and doing little else. Visit Saint Vincent and the Grenadines – a hidden gem in the Eastern Caribbean, full of stunning, unspoilt beauty and adventure waiting to be discovered. Hike through lush rainforest listening for the Saint Vincent parrot, shower under cascading waterfalls, trek up La Soufriere volcano for breathtaking views and visit enchanting coves on a boat trip. An adventurer's dream.
Overwater villas
Activity holidays, though, can be pricey and time-consuming, plus finding the balance between activity and relaxation can be tricky. Cue all-inclusive with Sandals Resorts. An all-inclusive getaway is the perfect solution for introducing more of what you enjoy, and providing guests with a wealth of ways to spend their holiday, without sneaky hidden costs, is a Sandals speciality.
Stay at their newest, adults-only Sandals Saint Vincent resort, the perfect base to explore the island. The indulgence, luxury, comfort, and security they promise at all their resorts are obvious here, with its modern, spacious accommodation, delicious locally inspired food, and restful pool areas, all included. The resort radiates quiet luxury tucked away on a secluded cove, hugged by rolling hills.
In addition to the above, every Sandals holiday offers a myriad of included land and water activities. You’ll fill those itineraries with morning yoga, pickleball, paddleboarding, snorkelling, table tennis, waterskiing and even scuba diving for certified divers. Only Sandals has the largest water sports operation in the Caribbean with top-of-the-line gear and professional instructors. And with the jade green ocean on your doorstep, water sport enthusiasts will be in heaven.
A boat excursion
A special activity unique to Sandals Saint Vincent is kayaking to bat caves, led by a guide. You’ll explore the inky depths and witness the local flying inhabitants. Also unique to Saint Vincent, the Anchor Reefs’ black coral, found nowhere else in the world and a favourite for snorkellers and divers.
For something a little more restful, let your creative juices flow and get crafting with jewellery making, soap making or sip and paint sessions, all exclusive to Sandals Saint Vincent.
What you can’t do in resort, Sandals offers fantastic excursions through their tour operator, Island Routes. From hiking to quad biking, history talks to catamaran cruises, all can be booked at the resort.
So, for an adventure holiday to remember, don’t rule out the Caribbean; choose Sandals Saint Vincent.
