Salt Whistle bay is a part of the island Mayreau. Mayreau is the smallest inhabited island of the Grenadines. The island has a population of 300. They only have electricity since 10 years! The island gets its water from three catchments set on the east side of the island. Salt was harvested and exported in times past but is now harvested only for local use. The island is populated mostly by fishermen and supported by tourism. The school has about 50 students from kindergarten to Grades 6. Upon completing their primary/elementary education, students attend secondary schools on neighbouring Union Island or the main island, St. Vincent.
