Bequia offers the visitor many treats when it comes to shopping - just
checking out all the intriguing and delightful shops and stores in Port
Elizabeth is a pleasure in itself.
No big supermarkets or vast shopping malls (although Bequia does boast
the Bayshore Mall, which houses several small boutiques, a travel agent
and a bank), but instead a range of small boutiques, gift shops, grocery
stores and delicatessen, a lively vegetable market and small local produce
stalls which will provide all the ingredients you need to complete your
holiday.
If you don't
see what you want - just ask!
Many businesses
can also be reached
on VHF
CH 68 or CH 16 |
GROCERIES
&
DELICATESSEN
If you are staying
on a yacht, most stores will be happy to take your order or enquiry
over VHF and arrange delivery to a suitable dock.
If you
are staying in a villa or apartment, you will be delighted at the range
of fresh produce, bread, meats and delicacies available on the island.
A "welcome pack" to await your arrival can usually be arranged - just enquire
when you make your booking.
