THE OWIA SALT POND TOUR

We will be making our way towards the windward side of the island. Our 1st stop would be at Arnos Vale where you will get to see the E.T Joshua airport (our old airport) and The Arnos Vale playing field (our stadium) where all the cricket matches are played – West Indies vs The rest of the world.

Carrying on our journey on the windward highway. This side of the island is the most developed side of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, where the majority of the hotel, bars and white sand beaches are.

Our next quick photo stop will be at villa where you will get the see the beautiful Young Island. Young Island is where Johnny Depp and some of his cast mates stayed while they were filming the movie, The Pirates of the Caribbean.

Our next stop would be the Black point tunnel also known as Jasper Rock Tunnel, it was constructed by the British around 1815 using slave labour and is one of the most popular recreational and historic sites on the windward coast.  Black Point itself was also used as a film location for the movie The Pirates of the Caribbean – Curse of the Black Pearl.

We will then be driving through Georgetown where we will be making our last quick stop at the Rabacca dry river for photos. Continuing on to Owia Salt Pond, we will be driving through Sandy bay. The settlements around Sandy Bay are where descendants of St Vincent’s Carib population have traditionally lived. Beyond Sandy Bay and Point Village is Owia Bay. On the northern tip of this very pretty cove is Owia Salt Pond.
