CHRISTMAS EVENT GUIDE 2017 | 3

Mustique is magical at Christmas time and we’re sure that you will enjoy your stay with us.

This Guide includes a calendar of ‘What’s Happening in Mustique’ this festive sea-son, including details of some rather special activities that we have planned.

Enjoy regular favourites such as tennis and pony camps, yoga and scuba diving, whilst this year’s Christmas programme features some unique Mustique events for those times when you feel like a break from the pampered seclusion of your villa. You can join the Nauti-Cool Mile Club on its Strenuous Snorkel, feel festive at the Carol concert and help raise a fortune for education at the Mustique Educational Trust’s annual picnic. Look out for current copies of ‘This Week in Mustique’, with updates and more special events.

As the year draws to a close, dust off your laurels and press your togas in prepara-tion for a truly Mustique-style Hogmanay. Early bookings for The Mustique Com-pany’s New Year’s Eve Party are welcomed by contacting [email protected]

For more information about any of the activities on Mustique please contact me on extension 8378 or 5329832.

Very best of wishes for 2017,

Jan O’Neil Social Director, The Mustique Company.

CORAL CONSERVATION

Join our Conservation Team.

In 2015 the island’s marine conservation team, with the help of The Coral Restoration Foundation International (CRFI), pioneered a coral restoration project to protect and rehabilitate the coral reefs surrounding Mustique. A coral nursery was established off shore in Endeavour Bay, where samples are nurtured for up to 9 months on coral “trees” before being out-planted back on to the surrounding reefs to regenerate and stabilize the fragile marine ecosystems of the island’s surrounding waters.

Every few weeks the dive team swim out to the nursery to clean the coral and measure its progress. Certified divers are very welcome to join the team, and it’s an easy swim out with mask and snorkel to visit the nursery.

Please contact the Dive Shop on extension 8486 for further information.
