Plantation beach
Ultimate guide (October 2024)
Plantation is a resort beach on the Caribbean coast of
Bequia island, Grenadines. However, anyone can relax near the water's edge. The place is beautiful with a smooth entry into the sea and clear water. There are some palms, but these are not conveniently located. So it is hard to find a shaded spot, even if you are a hotel guest. As for the advantages, it is worth to mention a good location between the best beach of the island (to the south) and the promenade with a large choice of restaurants (to the north). Shore and seabed: sand, stones.

Bequia Plantation Hotel is a great property. Unfortunately, it is poorly presented in the online booking systems. A little further away from the beach, there are also few more accommodation options with rooms' rates starting from US$150 per night.

Admiral II.
