Overview
The capital of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Kingstown is a bustling port city of cobblestone arcades and a lively market. It is the gateway to the volcanic main island and the idyllic Grenadine cays.
Getting around
Minibuses and taxis serve the main island, and the compact center is walkable. Ferries connect to Bequia and the other Grenadines.
Local etiquette
Vincentians are warm and easygoing, so greet people before asking questions. Modest dress suits town, and beachwear stays at the beach.
Safety
Kingstown is generally safe for visitors, with petty theft the main concern in crowded areas. Normal caution at night is sufficient.
