General Info
Description:
This small island, lying south of Bequia, is just five kms (three miles) long. It is wooded and hilly and has several spectacular white sandy beaches. It is a favourite holiday spot for the rich and famous.
While Mustique is still open to visiting yachts, the regulations now involve hefty mooring fees and often prevent visitors from wandering very far ashore.
The only mooring allowed is in Britannia Bay.
Information on the island can be found on the Mustique website.
Approach Notes and Cautions:
The beacon on Montezuma reef is no longer there. It has been replaced by a small red and black buoy.

12° 52.7’N, 61° 11.4’W.
