You might try to shed your urban frenzy on this unique island. You could set a tight agenda and try to schedule in everything within a rigid time slot. Or NOT. If you want to cover the entire island you will need a 4wheel drive vehicle. There are a few miles of paved road and then there are what the maps refer to as tracks. The track on the North and North-East part take you over rugged boulders, creeping along slowly in 1st gear. Road hazards consist of goats leaping out of your way or lazing cattle lying in the cool mud blocking your way.

Diving and Snorkling:
Don't expect much from Sandy Island. Too many years of yachts anchoring on the inside passage have destroyed the reef. Ivan washed away the palms. Arrange a trip out to White Island.

Visit Petite Martinique and have lunch.

Hike
The northern trail out of Bogles and drop down to Anse la Rouch for a hidden beach.
Try to get all the way out to Jack Iron Point.

Day trip to Tobago Cays
The Tobago Cays are a chain of islands north of Carriacou in the Grenadines. There is fabulous snorkeling there. You will see lots of reef life and hopefully turtles. This area has been designated a Marine Park. You are not allowed to harm or take anything in the water or on/from the shore.
Some of my family were taken to Union Island by Cuthburt Snagg shown in this photo. From Union Island, there is a catamaran that provides a day trip with lunch http://www.captainyannis.com/.
Cuthburt also has a smaller boat and can offer water taxi services to nearby Sandy Island or White Island for half day trips.
You can also travel to the Cays via "Mostly Harmless" a boat operated by Dave out of Bayaleau, Carriacou near Windward http://www.carriacoucottages.com/activities.html.
