St Vincent - Bequia Ferry Transfer: Local Driver, Flexible Pickup

Summary

Scenic transfer from St Vincent airport to Bequia ferry

You’ll step off your flight into St Vincent’s humid air and spot your name held by a local driver who knows every shortcut. Expect easy conversation on winding roads, glimpses of island life out the window, and help making your Bequia ferry—even if your plane runs late. It’s not just transport; it’s a welcome into island rhythms.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed after landing in St Vincent was the thick, warm air — it kind of clung to my shirt as I stepped outside. Stefano was already waiting just past arrivals, holding up my name (I always get a weird thrill seeing that). He waved me over with this easy grin and helped me wrangle my bag into his van. The drive toward the Bequia ferry wasn’t just a straight shot; we wound through these green hills, windows down so you could hear birds and catch whiffs of something sweet — maybe mango trees? I’m not sure. Stefano pointed out a cricket field where he said his cousin once played for the local team. That made me smile.

I’d been worried about missing the last ferry — flights can be late here, and everyone seems to know it. Stefano told me not to stress; if we were cutting it close, he’d just call ahead and ask them to wait a few minutes. “They know me,” he said, tapping the steering wheel like it was an inside joke. There’s something comforting about that kind of local connection. The ride itself felt more like a mini day trip than just an airport transfer to the Bequia ferry — all these flashes of blue water between trees, people waving from roadside stands selling fruit. At one point we slowed for goats crossing the road (I still laugh thinking about how unbothered they looked).

By the time we pulled up near Kingstown’s ferry terminal, I felt oddly relaxed for someone who’d been traveling half the day. Stefano helped with my bag again and pointed out where I should go next — even offered to walk me in if I wanted. It wasn’t fancy or anything, but honestly, that made it better somehow. If you’re heading from St Vincent airport to Bequia ferry with a local guide like him, you’ll get more than just a ride.
