ABOUT US

Carriacou has a lot to offer the visiting yachts…and now with TBMC fully established it has even more!

Carriacou lies 23 miles north of Grenada, is 7 miles long and approx 3 miles wide at its widest point. Its 13 sq mile area has a high point of 985 ft above sea level.

In the 17th century, Carriacou was spelled 'Kayryouacou' by the Caribs which translates to “The land of Reefs” These ancient Amerindians were the first settlers believed to have inhabited the island.

In more recent times, like the 18th century this magical island has been the home to traditional boatbuilders who hailed from Scotland and started a thriving trade of building sailing vessels from locally harvested wood.

Now in the 21st century it seems like destiny that the island now hosts one of the biggest boatyards in the southern Caribbean . Built by son of the soil, Cararriacouan by birth, Jerome McQuilkin and his Trinidadian business partner John Walker. Tyrell Bay Marina Carriacou is poised to take the island into the next century of its maritime development.
