Renting a car in Bequia is one of the best ways to explore this charming 7-square-mile island with complete freedom and flexibility. While Bequia may be small—actually slightly smaller than London’s Heathrow Airport—it offers winding coastal roads, lush hillsides, and secluded beaches that are best discovered by car.
Of course, many visitors enjoy walking or using the island’s affordable “dollar vans” (from just $1.50) and open-sided taxis, where prices are agreed with the driver. These are great options for short distances or relaxed sightseeing. But for those staying in more remote areas, or who want to explore on their own schedule, renting a car in Bequia can elevate your stay from relaxing to unforgettable.
Despite some steep inclines and narrow roads, driving here is enjoyable. Local drivers are courteous and patient, and the pace of island life means things move slowly—ideal if you’re a bit hesitant about driving abroad. Driving is on the left, and foreign visitors must purchase a local driving permit, which we help arrange as part of your rental package.
We partner with Bequia’s most trusted car rental company, offering reliable 5-seat jeeps delivered straight to your villa, complete with your permit. Returning your vehicle is just as easy—simply drop it at the port or airport at a time arranged with the rental company.
Whether you’re planning to spend your days beach-hopping, hiking scenic trails, or enjoying dinner in different parts of the island, renting a car in Bequia gives you the convenience to make the most of your Caribbean escape.
