By Bus
Buses are small minivans that operate on the larger islands. On St Vincent, buses run from the bus terminal in Kingstown, next to the Little Tokyo Fishmarket, from 6am to 8pm, although service is much less frequent on Sundays than during the rest of the week. The terminal is organized into three lanes marked Leeward, Windward or Kingstown . Ask any driver if you're not sure which one you want. Although buses pack in as many people as possible, play loud music and drive very fast around the steep mountain roads, they are very safe, fun and heavily used by locals. Though there are frequent bus stops , buses can be flagged down anywhere along the route - you'll always know when one is around by their incessant use of the horn. Let the conductor know when you want to get off and pay as you leave. Fares from Kingstown work out to around EC$1 to the airport, EC$1.50 to Villa Beach, EC$3 to Argyle and EC$2 to Buccament. Similar bus services run on Bequia and Union Island.
