Detailed itinerary
1
The Fort Charlotte is a historic fort with breathtaking view of the capital Kingstown. This Fort was a significant fortification that housed around 600 troops and a battery of over 30 canons which are turned inland and were used to maintain control.
2
Stop 2
The Dark View Falls are two spectacular waterfalls, one above the other, cascading down high cliff faces and plunging into natural pools. There is a short and easy hike to the falls through rainforest and across the Richmond River via either a bamboo bridge or conventional bridge. You pass through a clearing in the middle of a pretty bamboo grove before reaching the first tall waterfall. Another short, but more difficult walk will take you up to the second waterfall, directly above the first. The waterfalls flow all year from a tributary of the Richmond River.
3
End the day with a relaxing swim at the beautiful white sandy beach of the Buccament Bay.
4
Visit the scenes of the taping of the movie Pirates of the Caribbean, before heading to the Buccament Beach
