Boat to Fort Duvernette
About
In Saint Vincent, Boat to Fort Duvernette is an attraction reached by water from the Caribbean Sea near Arnos Vale. The boat crossing is the way to the site, and it forms part of the outing itself.
The trip is known for the short sea passage and the views back towards the island's coast. First-time visitors can expect a boat ride followed by time at the fort site, with the surrounding water and shoreline forming much of the appeal. A 4.7 out of 5 average across 129 reviews places it among the island's better-regarded excursions.
Arnos Vale sits close to Kingstown, and the nearby islands of Bequia, Mustique, Canouan, Mayreau and Union Island lie to the south. Calliaqua is also nearby, making the departure point convenient for visitors based along that stretch of coast.
Fish, lobster and conch feature in Caribbean cooking, often stewed or grilled with lime and pepper, so a meal after the boat trip is worth planning. Green and hawksbill turtles nest on Caribbean beaches, and coral reefs support reef fish and spiny lobster. The hurricane season covers the Caribbean from the start of June to the end of November.
