7 Best Places to Shop in St. Vincent and the Grenadines

At Mauvin Hutchins' workshop, you can purchase the ultimate Bequia souvenir—a handmade model "Bequia boat"—or special-order a replica of your own yacht. The models are incredibly detailed and quite expensive, priced from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. The simplest models take about a week to make; a few are always available for immediate sale.

In addition to the handcrafted, expertly rigged, and authentically detailed model boats on display—everything from traditional Bequia whaling boats and classic schooners to modern-day cruisers—the Sargeant brothers (Timothy, Winston, and Lawson) build custom models on commission.

Whether you're putting together a picnic, stocking your kitchenette, provisioning a yacht, looking for recognized brands or locally made seasonings and sauces, or just want some snacks, head for C.K. Greaves Supermarket. Sunrise Supermarket, in Arnos Vale, is owned by the same company.

This huge, modern supermarket has a store in Kingstown and a branch in Arnos Vale; both are open daily. You can buy groceries, beverages, deli meats, salads, desserts, and more. The Kingstown store has an in-store pharmacy (open weekdays), ATM, and mobile top-up facility.

You'll enjoy visiting the Kingstown market, a three-story enclosed building that really bustles on Friday and Saturday mornings, when vendors bring their produce, meats, and fish to market.

Locally made grass floor mats, place mats, and other straw articles, as well as batik cloth, handmade West Indian dolls, hand-painted calabashes, and framed artwork are all available at this store that's three blocks from the wharf. Cash only; no credit cards.

Among the few souvenir shops in St. Vincent, Voyager has a small selection of duty-free cameras, electronics, watches, china, and jewelry.
