Island Drive

Drive through the capital of St. George’s, passing Government House, St. Paul’s and on to the parish of St. David’s, where plantations of cocoa and spices can be seen. At Marquis, the brightly painted fishing boats dot the beaches and the local people weave the pandanus grasses into crafts. Your next stop is L'Esterre Estate. From L'Esterre Estate, you’ll proceed to the National Park Nature Center at Grand Etang. Grand Etang languishes at 1,900 feet in the crater of an extinct volcano. Descend on a fern-fringed road to Annandale, where a short and steep walk brings you to a green paradise of rushing water and hanging ferns.
