The story

Petite Martinique Whitsuntide Regatta Festival in Petite Martinique

Petite Martinique, the smallest of Grenada's three inhabited islands, holds its own Whitsuntide weekend regatta, timed to the Christian Pentecost calendar shared with similar events across the Grenadines. Distinct from Carriacou's separate summer regatta, the event draws mostly residents, diaspora family and visitors from neighbouring islands rather than significant international tourism.

Petite Martinique, the smallest of Grenada's three inhabited islands, holds its own regatta each Whitsuntide weekend, a Christian calendar timing, fifty days after Easter, shared with related Whit weekend regattas held on other islands across the Grenadines.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

The place changes

Petite Martinique's tiny population makes its Whitsuntide regatta one of the most intensely community-scaled maritime events in the Grenadines, distinct from the larger, more internationally attended regattas on Grenada's mainland and Carriacou

The mystery stays covered

Its Pentecost-weekend timing connects it to a wider regional pattern of Whitsuntide maritime festivals held independently across several Grenadine islands, each community running its own version rather than a shared regional event, giving Petite Martinique's regatta a specific place within that broader Windward Islands tradition

What moves first
