The Official Website of Carriacou Regatta 2011 - July 24th to August 1st

Welcome!

Carriacou Regatta Festival started in 1965 as a mere boat racing event in Hillsborough Bay, Carriacou. The festival has now grown to become the biggest annual summer festival in the region. Held over the Emancipation weekend each year, it now includes a large number of sporting and cultural activities. The regatta race events focus mainly on locally and regionally built workboats with some twelve different classes of boats, ranging from 14 to 35 feet in length. Participating islands include sister islands, Grenada and Petite Martinique; also Antigua and Tobago; as well as Canouan, Mayreau, Bequia from the Saint Vincent Grenadines; and of course, host island, Carriacou. Other aspects of the festival include donkey racing, greasy pole, road races, Miss Wet T-shirt, and the Miss Aquaval Queen Pageant, with participation from Trinidad, Tobago, Grenada, Barbados, Canouan, Union Island and Carriacou.
