There are over 32 beautiful islands and cays that make up St Vincent and the Grenadines; of these, nine are inhabited
The name “Saint Vincent” was given by Columbus on his ‘discovery’ of the island on 22 January 1498, afterof Saint Vincent of Saragossa, a Spanish saint. The name “Grenadines” derives from the Spanish for “pomegranate” (a reference to the distribution of the smaller islands; pomegranates do not grow on the islands!)
Perhaps the most famous island is Mustique, where Princess Margaret had a holiday home
The oldest botanic gardens in the western hemisphere is located in St Vincent & The Grenadines, having been founded in 1765.
The national dish of the country is fried jackfish and roasted breadfruit
