In January 2008, my boyfriend and I boarded the Friendship Rose for a day sail to Mustique. We happened to be the only ones booked for that day, so we had the schooner all to ourselves. We relaxed on the ship, took in the beautiful island views and dozed on the hammock. When we arrived in Mustique, we were treated... more

What could be bad?! An amazing port to sail from. Beautifully restored vessel with doting staff? Sailing to one of the most beautiful islands - the Tobago Cayes - to swim and snorkel with turtles & rays (and yes a nurse shark?) A must do for anyone here and I will do it again. more

We have nothing but great things to say about our time on the Friendship Rose - the fact that we have been on board four times speaks for itself. We've been to Mustique and to the Tobago Cays - twice to each place. The day starts off with a great breakfast on board of coffee, tea, juice, croissants, fruit -... more

The highlight od our 2 week Caribbean cruise. A fantastic day out aboard a lovely ship, cruising the beautiful Grenadine Islands around Bequia. The crew were excellent-charming and friendly, the food and drink great. A brilliant day out. Greeted on board with a lovely continental breakfast of pastries, fruit, orange juice and coffee. Later served cheese and biscuits, followed by... more

We went on two trips! Both great. Lovely crew, great food and unforgettable snorkelling, especially in the Tobago Cays. The turtles were most approachable and plentiful, the corals and fish unbelievable and we only snorkelled!! We will be back for sure! Gail and Jurgen Dous Darwin, Australia more

A trip on the Friendship Rose is a must for anyone staying on Bequia. Aptly named, it's the most friendly staff I've ever encountered. The captain (forgetting his name) has many great stories detailing his intertwined history with that of the boat. Although my wife and I bareboated later in our vacation, we still enjoyed seeing other islands via the... more

What an amazing crew! March of 2009 we sailed to Mayreau with the Friendship Rose and in passing I had mention that it was my boyfriend's birthday. The company had organized a water taxi to take us to the Tobago Cays for an hour and then back to Mayreau to meet the rest of the crew. It was incredible. We... more

Date: March 26, 2009 Reviewer: A TripAdvisor Member, Ottawa, Canada We took this day tour whilst spending a week in Bequia last spring.. It was a spectacular trip through the Grenadine islands with an hour or so of reef snorkeling as an added bonus. Definitely one of the better reefs we've explored, perhaps not as rich as the reefs of... more
