The Island

Canouan is just five square miles in size and formerly a community of sailors and fishermen. The now expanding local populous still includes fishermen, proud of their community heritage as boat builders and harvesters of the sea. Models of the traditional wooden boats are still lovingly constructed by hand. Laughter prevails as a vital ingredient of this community, and the sounds of happy children and elders create a feeling of traveling into an easier place and time. Canouan manages to retain a distinct quality inherited from another time in history, another age.

In Canouan you can laze your days away on the beach. Or take part in something more strenuous with your choice from the complete range of sports under the guidance of qualified attendants…

Here there is no lack of opportunity for sport. You have a choice between sailing, scuba diving, wind-surfing or volley-ball; or excursions on foot, boat or by small plane.
