Mayreau is rimmed by magnificent virgin beaches. Saline Bay in the south, with its nearly mile long white sandy beach is very popular with visitors. As you approach Saline Bay from the north, keep well seaward of the buoy that marks the edge of the reef.

    There are two dingy docks and a few moorings for rent. Check the quality and the price before settling for them. Salt Whistle Bay is the favourite of many sailors, scoring high points for calmness. Enter through a central channel because of the reefs on either side, the southern one being particularly dangerous. Anchor in the clear sandy areas. It is also possible to anchor on the windward side of Mayreau, approaching from the south. There are many reefs east of Mayreau so travel in good light and study the charts carefully.

Hikes: There is a long road from Salt Whistle Bay up to the quaint little village and the lovely Catholic church. From Saline Bay there is a steep road up into the village or across the southern part of the island to the salt pond where you can collect rock salt in the dry season, or continue on to explore the pristine windward beaches.
Medical Facilities: There is a small clinic in Station Hill.
Shopping and Services: There are a few small grocery stores carrying basic supplies.
Garbage Disposal: As in all the islands, dispose of your garbage personally - do not give it to anyone to dispose of for you, it will only end up in the sea or the bushes!
