Mustique Island, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

Surrounded by lush tropical forests, the area is about 5.7 sq km. And is of volcanic origin. One of the main features of the island is its unique warm climate.

Thanks to its unique location, there are never any strong hurricanes on the island's surface. These favorable conditions have contributed to the planting of the extensive orchards. At the moment, there are only three tiny villages on the isle criterion. Around 800 people live on Mustique. In 1958 the island was bought by the rich Scottish Baron Colin Tennant. He has ensured that the unique ecological system of the tropical island has been preserved. On the order of the Baron it was permitted to erect not more than 114 houses on the island. It is forbidden to pave the streets and build houses higher than tree tops.

Although it has been many years ago, all the baron's references were strictly observed. On the island you can really only find 114 buildings. With the development of the tourist infrastructure, all the modern supply lines were laid out on the island, but all of them are hidden under the earth and therefore do not hurt the natural splendor. On the island there are no big hotels with a hectic atmosphere. At the disposal of the holidaymakers are the picturesque villas, the splendid beaches and the unique restaurants - the pride of the peculiar Mustique island. Next - Mnemba island
