Port Royal
Port Royal is one of the most storied regions in the country, steeped in history and brimming with tales of a time when it was a haven for pirates and outlaws. This charming area has managed to hold on to its unique independence and rich heritage. Back in the 17th century, it was dubbed the "wickedest city in the west," where swashbucklers roamed and sea shanties filled the air. However, much of that notorious old city now lies beneath the waves, thanks to a devastating earthquake in 1692 that swallowed two-thirds of the town. The area has faced its share of challenges: another earthquake in 1907, several hurricanes, fires, and diseases that took a toll on the population. Yet, the waters surrounding Port Royal are a treasure trove for archaeologists, teeming with relics that paint a vivid picture of life during the early days of English occupation. Port Royal is also the proud home of the Archaeological Division of the Jamaica National Heritage Trust (JNHT). They've recently completed a fascinating sonar survey of the submerged city, uncovering a sunken pirate ship in Kingston Harbour. Thousands of artifacts have been recovered so far, each one a piece of the puzzle that tells Port Royal's captivating story. Plans are in the works for a local museum to display these remarkable finds once research is complete. While you're there, take a moment to imagine the bustling streets of the past and the spirit of adventure that once filled the air. Nearby, you can enjoy a meal at one of the local seafood restaurants, where the catch of the day is as fresh as the ocean breeze. The town's charm and history make it a must-visit for anyone looking to connect with Jamaica's storied past.

Gros Piton
Visiting St. Lucia is an adventure in itself, but how you choose to spend your time there can truly shape your memories of this stunning island. One can't talk about St. Lucia without mentioning the iconic Pitons. These two majestic volcanic mountains, Gros Piton and Petit Piton, are undoubtedly among the island's most spectacular features. Standing proudly at 2,619 feet above sea level, Gros Piton, alongside its twin, marks the skyline of St. Lucia's western coast. From its summit, you'll be rewarded with panoramic views of the sparkling Caribbean Sea and the lush expanse of the island below. Taking a guided tour to hike Gros Piton is the only way to capture this breathtaking perspective, and the experience of reaching the top is genuinely unforgettable. Choosing to climb Gros Piton is your ticket to an exhilarating adventure. While both mountains are climbable, only Gros Piton is officially approved for hikers by the St. Lucian government. Petit Piton, though tempting, is much steeper and poses greater risks. In contrast, Gros Piton offers a safer hike with even more magnificent views. Although parts of the trail can be a bit steep, most travelers find the hike manageable and incredibly rewarding. For those seeking a deeper connection with nature, the area surrounding the Pitons is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rich with diverse flora and fauna. You might spot rare bird species or unique plants that make the journey even more special. Whether you’re an avid hiker or a curious traveler, the experience promises not just scenic beauty but also a sense of accomplishment and awe.
