Bequia Easter Regatta

Bequia Easter Regatta, which was once held at Whitsun but is currently celebrated around Easter for the past 35 years, is well-known for its distinctive blend of local doubleheader racing, sailboat racing, shoreside events, and Bequia hospitality.

A fleet of twenty or more traditional local boats from Bequia and the surrounding islands, some as small as 12 feet long and others as large as a ship. On the sparkling waters around Bequia, 28-foot-long sharks compete for supremacy in speed and agility. This five-day boat race takes place on the island of Bequia during Easter. Many professional and amateur sailors from across the world compete in the Caribbean Sea surrounding the island. It's quite a sight to see, and the last day sees massive festivities that last far into the night. Bequia Easter Regatta certainly is one of the most famous festivals in Saint Vincent and Grenadines.
