Qibla direction in Saint Vincent and Grenadines
The Qibla in Saint Vincent and Grenadines lies towards the north-east. Depending on the city the angle from true north ranges from 66.5° in Barrouallie to 66.6° in Georgetown, and the Kaaba is between 10,570 km and 10,593 km away. The table gives the exact bearing for 7 cities.
Stand facing true north, then turn clockwise by the angle of your city. A phone compass shows magnetic north, which in Saint Vincent and Grenadines can differ from true north by a few degrees; our Qibla finder corrects this automatically when your phone reports true heading.
Why the Qibla changes across the country
Between the cities in the table the Qibla angle varies by 0.0°. Georgetown is the closest to the Kaaba (10,570 km) and Port Elizabeth the farthest (10,593 km). The farther apart two cities are, the more their bearings to Makkah diverge, which is why the angle of the capital, 66.6°, should not be used everywhere.
Inside a mosque, the mihrab already shows the Qibla. Elsewhere, a compass app, the position of the sun or our Qibla finder can be used; scholars agree that facing the general direction is enough when the exact angle cannot be known.
