Many tourism-dependent Caribbean economies make it a point that the beach is just the beginning.
However, in Mayreau, the smallest inhabited island in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, a beach — the world-famous Salt Whistle Bay — is the beginning and centre of the economy.
And, when iWitness News visited the 0.5 square mile island on July 9, eight days after the impact of Hurricane Beryl, the breach of the isthmus that shielded Salt Whistle Bay from the rougher seas on the windward side of the island was a recurring theme.

Wonderful piece, Kenton. I was really impressed with the lady who flew in from Washington to assist. So amazing.
My only question is, what is going to happen to all the debris after the clean up campaign? Is this something you could find out?
