The perfect finish to an island tour, with superb views back over Kingstown and the surrounding area, as well as our cruise ship. The fort has been pretty well maintained, and is free to enter.

Reviewed By N8223PHchristinek - Swampscott, United States
This place is so fascinating. The produce is so fresh and because of St. Vincent's volcanic soil, it is so flavorful. There are so many herbs and spices being sold and the ladies selling them are happy to tell you how to use them. A must-see stop.
