  When thinking of shopping and services don't be misled by Bequia being a small island in a distant ocean. Sure, there are no mega marts nor fast food chains and chickens and sheep sometimes do wander down main street, but there is everything needed for your convenience and comfort of a holiday on land or sea. The harbour town of Port Elizabeth is the centre of the island's commerce for your shopping; at its heart the main jetty which, with the frequent sailings and arrivals of passenger ferries and cargo boats, is the closest you'll find to hustle and bustle. BEQUIA ISLAND  Whatever your tastes, Port Elizabeth is your one-stop harbour for all you will need to provision your yacht or stock your kitchen for a self-catering holiday. Supermarkets The Bakery in O'Car, Knights Trading (on Back Street, with a hardware and lumber department upstairs) and Knights Supermarket (on Front Street) offer baked, canned and dried goods, a selection of frozen foods and a variety of cold drinks, wines and liquors. Ice is readily available - ask at the Shoreline Minimart next to The Porthole restaurant. BEQUIA ISLAND: SHOPPING |
