J. F. Mitchell Airport is the primary gateway to Bequia, located near the southern coast. Named after Sir James Fitz-Allen Mitchell, a former prime minister of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, this small airstrip handles regional flights from nearby islands. Visitors experience a short, scenic descent over turquoise waters and green hills. The terminal is modest, with basic amenities, and taxis await arrivals to take you to beaches or accommodations. It's a charming, low-key entry point that sets the tone for Bequia's relaxed island vibe.
