Caribbean beaches that aren’t crowded with hotels and condos are rare. Fortunately, the little-known island chain of St. Vincent and the Grenadines is–at least for now–laid back, conservation minded, and lightly developed.

Island: St. Vincent

Outside bustling Kingstown, this volcanic island is a scenic paradise of lush rainforests, deep bays, and dramatic waterfalls–all reasons St. Vincent was the film location for Pirates of the Caribbean.

Petit Byahaut Eco-Resort

No roads, no phones, no TVs, no walls: What does solar-powered Petit Byahaut have? A gorgeous black-sand beach, friendly folks, ­outdoorsy tropical atmosphere, and gourmet meals.
