Welcome

Barbados Airport
I have grown to love small airports. Barbados Airport is an important center for Caribbean destinations. It is a hub for Air Blue and handles much direct traffic from Europe. With all that it is charming, breezy, and very comfortable. Because you switch from large airliners to small puddle jumpers, you walk the runways. It’s...
Princess Margaret Beach
Princess Margaret Beach It is my considered opinion that Princess Margaret’s Beach is Bequia’s finest beach. It is on Admiralty Bay, so the water is gentle and welcoming.

The Tropical Hideaway
So far there are two places on Bequia that are practically indescribable. This is because the very concept and execution of both places staggers the mind and makes concentration difficult. One of those places is Moonhole. I have already devoted considerable space to Moonhole in this blog. So now it is the Tropical Hideaway’s turn....
