the
SOUTH
|
| Scotts
Head / Soufriere Bay |
|
The south of the island takes
about half an hour to reach
by road from the capital, Roseau. This area is probably best
known for its unique and varied diving and snorkelling opportunities.
The
waters of the Caribbean Sea to the west are generally calm and clear,
protected
by the island's mountainous terrain from the prevailing easterly winds.
The Soufriere/ Scotts Head Bay Marine Reserve is a submerged volcano,
with drop-offs, wrecks, a wide variety of colourful fish and an
abundance
of coral in pristine condition. 'Champagne' - streams of tiny bubbles
rising
from the ocean floor - betray hot springs beneath the sea bed. Nature
Island
Dive is conveniently located on the coast road at Soufriere. At the
'toe'
of the island, a trail leads past old cannons to the summit of a rocky
outcrop. To the south, from any vantage point, the French island of
Martinique
may be clearly seen accross the channel. The road inland from Soufriere
takes you to an open air warm sulphur springs bathing pool below the
forest
canopy, from where a nature trail leads to conical sulphur deposits on
the hillside.
