Mount Pleasant
A ridge-top residential area in the middle of Bequia, overlooking Admiralty Bay and both coasts. It is one of the island's best panoramic viewpoints.
Mount Pleasant sits in the island's central highlands. Villas and small restaurants line the mountain road. From near the summit you can see the sailboat anchorage of Admiralty Bay to the north, and Friendship Bay and the Grenadine islands, including Mustique, to the south. Sunset is especially beautiful here. It takes about 40 minutes to walk up the steep mountain road from Port Elizabeth, or 10 minutes by taxi, after which you can walk back down past Friendship Bay. Several restaurants and bars on the mountain offer good views.
