Canouan, The Grenadines

We had a good anchorage just off the beach at the Tamarind Beach Hotel.

Lisa earning her keep by scrubbing the bottom of the boat clean.  This will guarantee her a return invite. No slackers allowed.

Mission accomplished.  For the cost of one beer, actually two because I had one, Giles was able to obtain the internet password at the Pirates Cove.  Well done mate!

Found Ezra’s great local beach bar and stopped for a few.  Ezra himself was kind enough to pose for photograph with us.

Canouan didn’t have too much to offer at this time, but there is massive infrastructure construction going on right now.  They have the longest runway in the Granadines, so they can accept the private jets.  There is a new large marina currently under construction, a new Raffles Hotel, etc.  Give Canouan 5-7 years and it will be quite a destination.

Half of this mountain by the new airport has already torn down.
