Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is an independent British Commonwealth Realm in the Windward Islands of the West Indies, located to the south of Saint Lucia and to the north of Grenada. Although it was originally colonized by the French, the country was a British colony from 1783 until it achieved independence in 1979. The country includes the large island of Saint Vincent and the northern two thirds of the Grenadines, a chain of small islands between Saint Vincent and Grenada. Tourism in the country has been encouraged recently by the filming of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies on St. Vincent. Aids to navigation in St. Vincent and the Grenadines are the responsibility of the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Port Authority (SVGPA). ARLHS numbers are from the ARLHS World List of Lights.
