The rainy season calls for a few indoor activities... like Vincentian cooking lessons! Pelau and callaloo may not mean anything to you now, but after one lesson (or bite) you’ll be wanting to take the recipe home with you. These century-old recipes have withstood the test of time for a reason; they are delicious. Please note that these recipes are not suitable for vegetarians.
With November marking the start of the windy season, take advantage of the trade winds by kiteboarding from the breath-taking shores of Union Island. This is the perfect time to learn how to kiteboard, as the winds are gentler than the subsequent months. For a more leisurely ride, paddleboard around the inviting turquoise lagoons and mangroves. Unite with friends and family at the man-made island, Happy Island, for drinks and to watch your fellow surfers. Alternatively, grab some grub at the Snack Shack, a café built from recycled materials scavenged from their shores.
In November, St. Vincent & the Grenadines has an average temperature of 27.5°C, with highs of 30°C and lows of 25°C. There is a high chance of rainfall with an average of 18 days of rain in the month. November is part of hurricane season; however, the islands lie in the southernmost part of the hurricane belt and so occur less frequently than other Caribbean islands.
