Incredible sail with Alan down from Bequia to the Tobago Cays. He was a great host and made sure we were comfortable and drank lots of rum punches!! The Cays are just beautiful - swimming with hundreds of turtles was an experience and an amazing lobster lunch on the beach topped off the day! Brilliant value given we were out nearly 11 hours

We weren't sure if we were going to do a second boat trip and we decided to book one with Octopus for the second one! We were sooooo happy we did! The boat was gorgeous and the staff made us feel like Royalty. Everyone should plan to see the island of Mustique - it's magical.

Incredible day trip to Mustique aboard the Octopus.
The boat and the crew are wonderful - we had morning tea onboard and then did a peaceful sail to Mustique, where we spent our day snorkelling the reef with sea turtles.
One of our highlights in Bequia - Allen and Grafton are amazing crew, and we hope to sail with them again.

We had the nicest experience with Octopus. Keisha was so helpful to organise the trip as well as helping us sort other things out on the island. Fantastic service and great communication. Trip to Tobago Cays was amazing - definitely place to visit. When we come back we will contact Keisha for trips to other islands as well.

The Octopus Sailing Yacht was a very nice boat to take a day trip on. The crew, Captain Allen, Grafton and Brandy were very nice and made sure everyone had a good time. Brandy prepared a very nice lunch for everyone. There was some great snorkeling at Petit Nevis. We had a very nice sail home for the sunset. When back in the harbor Brandy serve everyone a few snacks and drinks before we got off the boat.
It was a great way to spend a day. I would highly recommend.

My husband and I booked a private sailing trip around Bequia in the end of May. All I can was WOW! This was our favorite part of our trip. We arrived a few mins early, the Captain Allan came and picked us up on the dingy and bought us to the boat. When we arrived we were greeted with Juillian(1st mat) and Ossi(chef)(dont know if I spelled that correct). There was a lovely brreakfast consist of pasties(cinnamon rolls)fruit, yogurt,coffee,tea and juice ready at the table. The staff was amazing throughout the whole day. Before lunch we stopped at near by island and snorkeled. While we were snorkeling Allen and Juillian went and got us breadfruit and roasted it with a fire. Awesome!Lunch was also served on the boat and was delicious. Ossi made some chicken and past dish with the breadfruit as a side dish. Amazing food and drinks readily available throughout of the day. We loved seeing moonhole- from the water along seeing the whole island . The staff was very knowledgeable and explained alot about the island of bequia. It was an amazing fun day with the crew. I cant wait to go back and book another trip!

Well I must say what a fabulous couple of days we had on the Octopus. The crew were great fun and very accommodating nothing was to much trouble and no rushing about to stick to time tables
First day we were picked up at 6.30am and didn't get back until 6.30 PM
They caught some fish both days and it was cooked and added to our lunch now that's fresh
Highly recommend a trip on the Octopus

Booked Octopuss for family day sail to TOBAGO Cays, 6 adults, four children, 3,3,5,7. Boat is 63 feet loa, fairly old, 1985, but in good condition, heavy with a comfortable motion, and reasonable sailing performance- very suitable for this type of work. Crew met us at allotted time and embarked us on two dinghy trips, slipped mooring and motored down Admiralty Bay passing Moonhole closely whilst eating cold breakfast, juice, coffee, banana bread, fruit, muesli and yoghurt. Sails were raised at West Cay and a pleasant sail at 8-10 knots to the west side of Cannouan to the Cays.
Skipper, Alan, very pleasant and competent, deck crew, Darren excellent with children and hostess Airie were a pleasure to be with. We moored firstly off the Baradahl beach so that the younger adults could snorkel the reef then moved to the cut between Petit Rameau and Petit Bateau where there is an excellent beach, puffer fish and tame manta rays- The Cays have been a protected national park for some years now and all the wildlife is tame and unafraid of humans.
Lunch, very well prepared chicken , pasta, salad was good but slightly disappointing as Airie is an excellent chef but has to abide by the charter company's prescribed menu. We should have gone ashore to the Petit Bateau beach where lobster, fish, conch etc. are available from the vendors.
Having set off late we had a quick sail back to Bequia arriving just after dark.
All in all a great day, the children and two adults of our party had not seen the Cays, which are bucket list material and the rest of us thoroughly enjoyed it.
It might seem a little expensive but to have the boat and a crew of three plus food and drinks for ten guests is really good value.

There were only 4 of us on the Octopus Cruise to the Tobago Cays. Alan was the captain and was very competent and a fun captain. When we were at the Cays, he took extra caution to keep us safe by staying right near us where we were snorkeling and gave us tips to stay safe.
Errie was the first mate and chef. She was a delight. We had delicious coffee,banana bread and fruit to start the day.
Her lunch was so delicious and had cheese and crackers before we returned home. She was a delight. So helpful and accommodating. Gaels helped arrange the trip for us. She eased early a true gem. We stayed at the Octopus Villa which was the best deal in Bequia with first class accommodations. We all would rate this trip a5+++++
I research for a living and tell it like it is and can't say enough great things about our entire experience.

Greetings. My 65th birthday is in November. We will be on Bequia November 19-26. A group of 8 adults. Looking for a booking the 23rd or 24th day cruise to Mustique. Always wanted a drink at Basil's!
Hi,
Thank you for your message.

Hi, my family of 4, 2 adults and 2 children, is interested in taking the day-trip to Tobago Cays tomorrow, December 11,2018. Are you available to pick up from the mainland of Saint Vincent at 6:30 am? I've been told that children are 50% off, so it would cost me about $450 USD. I hope we can do business and please respond ASAP because tomorrow is the only day I can journey to Tobago Cays.

Hi, myself and my partner will be in Bequia November 21 to the 26th for sure and we have an open itinerary the 26th to the 30th. We will be on the Friendship Rose on the 22nd but sure wouldn't mind going out again on a 2nd trip. Can you confirm you will be sailing during those times and what day, or days might work? Thanks Chrissy
