History of Pigeon Island

History of Pigeon Island


Let’s catch up with Kirk Elliott – National Geographic Educator, as he unfolds the history behind Pigeon Island Landmark and Stormy Norman (Norman Mercier), a very experienced provider of bespoke tours. Pigeon Island National Landmark is a 40-acre park that retraces the many historical legends of Saint Lucia, showcases the local wildlife, and is surrounded by fantastic seascapes.

It is in fact heralded as a “living museum”. Visitors to the park are free to amble, at their own pace, among the remnants of Admiral Rodney’s naval base, take a refreshing dip at one of the cosy coves, walk along the perimeter to the remains of a legendary pirate’s cave (that of Jamb de Bois aka Francoise le Clerc), or hike to the heights of the fort to gape at the spectacular 360 degree view.
