Dennery District can be found on the East cost of the island. It is centrally located along the highway, meaning you are approximately 45 min to Castries in the north, and 45 min to the Airport in the southern village of Vieux Fort. It is best known for fishing and agriculture (lima beans, bananas, and other tropical fruit). The District is home to the town of Dennery, which is a picturesque town overlooking a bay and a small island. It also is home to Fond d’Or Bay, and Frigate Island Nature Reserve. Both attract tourists looking to explore ruins, birdwatch, or hike trails to beautiful lookout points.
