Highlights

Kingstown Ferry Terminal - Our tour begins at the Kingstown cruise ship terminal. We’ll guide you through our capital city, Kingstown, highlighting some of its most historic buildings, including The Central Police Station, The Financial Complex, The Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court, and our Cenotaph.
Kingstown Market - We’ll drive through the bustling market square, where numerous vendors and farmers sell their local produce.
Kingstown Methodist Church - Continuing through Kingstown, we’ll travel along the street of the church, locally known as “back street.” Here, you’ll receive a brief history of the Methodist church, as well as the Anglican and Roman Catholic churches.
Buccament Bay - We’ll then join the Leeward Highway, now renamed the Nelson Mandela Highway. Along the way, you’ll see The Milton Cato Memorial Hospital, The Victoria Park (a small stadium also known as Carnival City during the Carnival season), The Botanical Gardens (the oldest garden of its kind in the western hemisphere), our industrial area Campden Park, and finally the picturesque Buccament Bay, where we’ll stop briefly for photos.
Layou Village - A short distance north of Buccament Bay is Layou, one of the first areas settled by the French in the early 18th century. Even before that, the Caribs used it as a settlement, as evidenced by the petroglyphs found in the area. We’ll stop here for photos.
Barrouallie - Our next stop is the fishing village of Barrouallie, established by French settlers in 1719 as the first European colony on St. Vincent. It was once the capital of St. Vincent and the Grenadines and changed hands between the French and British before remaining under British control. Located in Saint Patrick Parish, Barrouallie is the largest city and parish capital, known for fishing and famous for “Blackfish.” The surrounding mountains have historically protected the town from volcanic eruptions.
Wallilabou - Next, we’ll visit Wallilabou Bay, where the opening scenes of the first “Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of The Black Pearl” movie were filmed. It’s a popular site for cruise ship passengers.
Cumberland Bay - The Cumberland Power Development is the latest addition to St. Vincent’s hydraulic system, featuring a cascade of three generating stations served by a series of diversion weirs and pipelines.
Troumaca Primary School - After passing the Troumaca Primary School, we’ll stop for photos. This spot offers views of The La Soufrière Volcano, which stands 4,049 feet above sea level. On clear days, you can also see St. Lucia in the distance.
Chateaubelair Police Station - Chateaubelair is a large fishing village on the Leeward (west) coast of Saint Vincent, located just south of the La Soufrière volcano. Known locally as “Chateau,” it is the largest community in the North Leeward constituency and the fourth largest town in the country. Local attractions include Trinity Falls, Darkview Falls, and rock carvings believed to be left by Carib Indians. Visitors seeking authentic Caribbean culture will appreciate the natural beauty and friendly people of Chateaubelair.
Dark View Falls - Dark View Falls features two spectacular waterfalls, one above the other, cascading down high cliffs into natural pools. A short, easy hike through the rainforest and across the Richmond River via a bamboo or conventional bridge leads to the first waterfall. A more challenging walk takes you to the second waterfall above the first. The waterfalls flow year-round from a tributary of the Richmond River.
Buccament Bay - After enjoying Dark View Falls, we’ll return to Buccament Beach, where you’ll have an hour to swim or snorkel.

Private tour - Had a really fun day and enjoyed the tour. Started off going through the different towns, went to the set of the pirates of the Caribbean, a few beaches, dark view falls which was amazing. Our driver was very accommodating with water and Rum punch, loved every moment and would do it again.
