Castries An alleyway lined with food stalls and outdoor tables is located at the south end of the local market (see page 145). This is a place for locals, so prices are fair and the quality is good. Try curried meats, coal pot stews, and fresh coconut drinks. The stalls are open Monday through Saturday until 5pm.

Artisans lay tall reeds from the larouma plant on the mountain road around Pichelin, east of Bellevue Chopin, to allow them to dry before being braided into straw mats. It s okay to drive over them as the reeds are rigid and your car will do no damage. The headlands at both ends of Grand Bay, Pointe Tanama on the west and Carib Point on the east, were once fortified to protect the island from attack. You can explore along these cliffs to find ruins of the old forts and take in sweeping views of the bay.
