  3. Savanna-la-Mar Fort

    The English colonialists never completed the Savanna-la-Mar Fort at the foot of Great George St. Parts of it collapsed into the swamps within a few years of being built. Its innards form a small cove where locals swim. A bustling daily market, specializing in vegetables and local fish, can be found by the fort.

    St George's Parish Church, opposite the courthouse, was built in 1905. It's uninspired, but has a stately pipe organ that was dedicated in 1914.
