We wrote about Fort Rodney on Pigeon Island at the north end of Rodney Bay. This is the view looking south from Signal Hill, the taller of the two peaks on Pigeon Island.
Pigeon Island used to be an actual island, separated from the main island. Then Sandals resorts built the causeway between the two and built a resort on the causeway. If it's not obvious, the resort is all those red-roofed buildings in the center of the photo. This is one of three Sandals resorts on St. Lucia. Tourism is far and away the largest industry in St Lucia. While there are a number of resorts, Sandals is the largest player and the largest employer on the island.
That little stretch of beach below and to the right of Sandals is a cool little spot. It has food-and-drink kiosks, similar to Villa Pesquera here in Isabela, one of which is my new "away-from-home-happy-place." My happy place used to be a bar/restaurant on the beach in Barbados called Lobster Alive. Now it's this little kiosk at the foot of Signal Hill on Rodney Bay.
