UPDATE: Grenada charter plans changing...need your input!

Hi again. Our charter in Grenada begins in just 2 weeks. I posted here before looking for suggestions on what anchorages to visit, activities, etc. on islands between Grenada and Tobago Cays (plus suggestions re good restaurants for vegans). Thanks to those who replied. Well, it appears that, thanks to Coronavirus concerns, changes are being made re: where you and check in/out between these islands (fewer customs offices), who must physically go check in/out (entire crew v. just captain), etc. Since this may significantly increase the time we would all have to spend in customs offices over our short trip of 7 days, we are now going to limit our cruising to just Grenada/Carriacou. I'm concerned that there aren't as many desirable anchorages to visit if we are limited to just G and C. We are seeking beautiful and safe anchorages that have that lovely light blue water, where snorkeling is good, that are not roily and where swimming is clean and safe and where we will feel comfortable overnight. Eagerly seeking suggestions from people that have spent a lot of time down there. Thanks in advance and cheers!

If you can access Active Captain they list a few more.

The sculpture Garden
Gouyave
Sauter
Ronde Island

I’ve anchored at Gouyave, a little interesting but OK. Not the worst I’ve done. We didn’t go ashore, just spent the night.

If nothing else acquire AquaMap app. It contains AC data. Cheap insurance for your expensive vacation.

Also get Doyle’s guide. You should have it no matter what.

That is too bad. Don't forget Petit Martinique which is still in Grenada. If you anchor near the Petit St. Vincent no one will give you any trouble. We had dinner and drinks on the island.... didn't check in. The island of PSV is private as well.
