St Lucia


We arrived at Soufriere, St Lucia on Tuesday afternoon 21 Nov and took a mooring off Malgretout. This is a nice mooring area at the base of the Petite Piton. We are the last sailboat on the left of this picture. We generally prefer to stop here as clearing in is easy, especially with implementation of the new eSEACLEAR entry notification system. All of our paperwork was filled out on-line and all I had to do was send arrival notification and once I walked into customs wait while paperwork was printed and sign. Then off to immigration which was also easily accomplished.




Once we got settled in we took a dink ride around the
area and could see damage that remained from
Hurricane Thomas that hit here late in Oct 2010.












Locals said that they had never seen so much rain.
Evidence of the destruction is still plainly visible.
