Islands not to go to and why...
Trinidad is probably the most horrific island. The water is
dirty, polluted from the oil industry and runoff from the
mighty Orinoco River... the people are friendly. But Port
of Spain was too dangerous for my wife to go to IN THE
DAYTIME alone. Trini's may argue that point but I will
always disagree.
St. Lucia - Everytime I have been to St. Lucia it has been
a nightmare. OK. This is a very subjective opinion. But
being held up at gunpoint did not help. Rodney Bay is ok,
but don't go to the local jump ups near by... it is
dangerous. Of course the pitons are spectacular in the
south. There you will find some sort of peace.
Bequia
Talk about arrogance and British bullshit - here you are. I
found them not to be friendly and and it is the tourist
hellhole of the Grenadines. Maybe living in the Tobago Cays
for two weeks altered my perspective... but really, the
place just did nothing for me. The people were rude, the
ambiance negative and we just simply did not like it here.
ANY FRENCH ISLAND (Martinique, Guadalupe etc...)
Unless you speak French you will hate it. The French can be
difficult... even in the islands. There seems to be a lot
more black white conflict too - As the French adamantly
refuse to allow any thoughts of independence for the local
populace. Though they benefit from being part of France in
many ways - there is a very evident pecking order in terms
of melanin. White=money. Ugly but true and the bane of many
islands in the Caribbean.
St. Martin
Ths is where I live. I hate it. But there is work here.
Simple. It is a crazy place full of the ugliest form of
tourism - timeshare. yuk. And no to mention the garbage,
pollution, lack of vegetation, surplus of casinos... etc.
Unless you want to work don't come here.
