When to Go

The dry season from December to early May is the busiest time to visit — since that's when the island has clear skies, low humidity, and excellent sailing breezes. This is also when the island's famous Regatta takes place.The rainy season from June to November offers up some good deals for a Bequia honeymoon, but make sure to bring an umbrella since short afternoon showers are common. Worried about how hurricane season will affect your Bequia honeymoon? Don't fret! Bequia is generally unscathed during any hurricanes as it sits just south of the belt.
