Tyrrel Bay
Tyrrel Bay is Carriacou's main hub for cruising yachts, tucked into the southwest coast with reliable shelter and a lively, unpretentious atmosphere that keeps people anchored here longer than planned. You'll find a good mix of rum shops, a chandlery, and a laid-back shoreside scene within easy dinghy reach, plus the island's rich boat-building heritage on full display. It feels less like a stopover and more like a place with its own rhythm — drop the hook, get ashore, and you'll quickly understand why so many make it their base for exploring the Grenadines.
