Day trips would normally be done to the famed "Mustique", or down to the "Tobago Cays" for lunch and a few hours relaxation, but at least 1 night with 2 days, if not 2 nights/3 days or more on board is highly recommended to make the most of this paradise whilst you are visiting the country as there are so many islands. Click on map below to enlarge view!

Located in the calm waters of Britannia Bay, Basil’s Bar is legendary. For nearly fifty years it has been the cultural heartbeat of Mustique where generations of homeowners, guests, fisherman and pirates come to let their hair down. 

Whoever you are, Basil’s welcomes you with open arms for a delicious lunch overlooking the sea, a beer at the bar as the sun sets or a cocktail in between dances at Jump Up. Pop over for lunch for the day or en route to the southern Grenadines! Click here to read more about Basils Bar

How & What to Book

If you are considering a day charter trip to either Salt Whistle Bay or the Tobago Cays, or even an overnight charter, whilst the weather is generally always suitable and great for catamaran cruising, we recommend deciding the day/s to do this after arrival in Bequia or St Vincent, so you can plan the best days for your island hopping adventure while you are there.

Catamaran Impala lives on it's floating mooring directly outside the Bequia Plantation Hotel, and Captain Simmons is normally always on hand to pop ashore and meet up with you to plan your trip in detail when you arrive and assist you with food and drink provisioning from the local supermarket (see below for examples of the price of drinks, and recall for food, fish may very well be caught for free during the charter as well if you are a fish eater. Supermarkets sell all the usual fresh produce. It is only imported goods that carry a higher price tag, so your budget for food and drink is under your control)

Even if you are only planning very short island hopping trips per above, we do recommend making an inquiry in advance to advise dates you will be there and the tentative dates you are thinking most likely for the charter (no commitment). You can then firm everything up when you see Captain Simmons. Email: [email protected] and she will put you directly in touch and authorise the special rates.       

If you plan a longer multiple night charter then you should definitely communicate this in advance (email [email protected]). Also note if you are spending multiple nights onboard, you can check out of your room in the hotel and check back in again when you return. In this instance, you are best to plan ahead more and book only the nights you plan to stay in the hotel.
