Having paradise for ourselves (almost)
January 21-26, 2021 After our stop in Mayreau we motored a short bit out to the National Park Tobago Cays. This is a very popular place to visit and what we heard most years it is very crowded. Both with cruisers, charter boat and big cruise ships anchoring nearby. But as it is a very unusual year, it was not crowded at all! Not empty either, think it was around ten boats there when we arrived and in the time we were there it was between 20-30 at most. As it is a very big anchorage area this meant it was almost empty.

Let the pictures talk for themselves… And after some really nice time in Bequia we were ready to continue to the next island in the Grenadines.

Waiting for test results at Young Island
January 5-10, 2021 After our Atlantic crossing we arrived to Young Island Cut on the southern tip of St Vincent. We arrived early afternoon and because of covid-19 we would need to take a PCR-test before we could do the check-in process. Before our crossing we contacted the authorities in Saint Vincent & the Grenadines with approximate dates of our arrival. When we were a couple of days from St Vincent we contacted them again and booked a time to take our PCR tests, which was the morning after our arrival. To make things easier for our arrival we took our temperature everyday during the crossing. So, when we had…
