Union Island

This isle is one of the smaller and friendliest islands in the Grenadines, although you can still be the subject of the 'tourist dollar' frenzy as all parties struggle for your £$€. Nice bars and restaurants colorful small shops, and fruit stands along the road despite being small. The town is neat and well maintained with a few local restaurants, tourist shops, Wi-Fi places, etc.This is a very quiet peaceful island with little traffic. Clifton, the commercial area, is a neat and pretty little town on the harbor. Visually it is quite attractive. It is a short walk from one end to the other perhaps 4 blocks. Ashton, is the residential area, with access to the beautiful beaches and hiking trails
