Five Reasons to Visit Canouan Island in the Grenadines
No matter where in the U.S., Canada or U.K. you’re coming from, it’ll take you at least two flights and half a day to reach Canouan (most visitors connect via Barbados). But trust us, the travel time to this unspoiled 3.5-square-mile outpost in St. Vincent’s Grenadine archipelago is worth it. Dominated by the privately owned Canouan Estate (which comprises two-thirds of the island and includes two resorts and several villas), the exclusive, out of-the-way isle has long been a favorite of the wealthy. But here are five reasons why a trip here is worth the time and effort for the rest of us, too. CJ Travel Editor Sarah Greaves-Gabbadon has the scoop.

It’s an intoxicating Caribbean combination that alone makes the trip worth it.
