A stopover at Mustique is a real "must" during your cruise.

On shore you will come across pretty Creole houses painted in warm tropical colours and you can hire a jeep to tour around the island. Half a day is the perfect amount of time to spend here, admiring the incredibly luxurious properties and taking in the Antilles air.

To the north of the isle, in the shelter of the tradewinds, is the shipwreck of the cruise ship Antilles. She is at a depth of 5 metres and an underwater dive is possible, but care must be taken due to the strong local currents.

Anchoring in Britannia Bay is not permitted in order to protect the delicate seabed, but there are bouys available.
