Kingstown City Highlights
Meet your tour guide at the Kingstown cruise ship terminal and begin your tour.
As you drive, you will be shown information about some of the most historic buildings, such as the Central Police Station, The Financial Complex, The Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court, and our Cenotaph. Make your way through Kingstown Market, a bustling market square where you will see many vendors and farmers selling their local produces.
As we continue through our capital city Kingstown, we will be driving on the church's street, or 'back street' as it is locally called. Here you will be shown and given a brief history of the Kingstown Methodist Church and the Anglican and Roman Catholic church.
- Make your way to Fort Charlotte. Fort Charlotte is a British-colonial-era fort built on a hill overlooking the harbour. Enjoy a panoramic view of the island's Leeward side, including Kingstown, Young Island, Bequia, and the famous island Mustique.
Drive to Layou Village, a picturesque settlement, for some more photos. Layou was one of the first areas of settlement by the French, who were the first Europeans to settle in St. Vincent and The Grenadines in the early part of the eighteenth century. Even before them, the Caribs used it as one of their settlements, as is evident from the petroglyphs found in the area.
Explore the fishing village of Barrouallie. The area is known for fishing and is famous for blackfish.
Make your way to Wallilabou Bay, where the opening scenes of the first movie of 'The Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of The Black Pearl' were filmed. It is one of the most visited sites by cruise ship passengers.
Visit Wallilabou Heritage Park and admire the area and its waterfall. Large Samaan trees cover the pool and its adjacent areas, creating a cool microclimate for the park's core area. These and other plants create a habitat for several species of birds.
After a fun time on the pirate's tour, we will then make our journey back to the beautiful white sand beach called Buccament Beach, where you will have 1 hour to swim or snorkel.
Return to your hotel or port after an exhilarating day's journey.
