EVEN NOW; WITH A THOUSAND LITTLE VOYAGES UNDER MY BELT.
I STILL FEEL A MEMORIAL CHILL ON CASTING OFF.

Canouan is an island in transition. A decade ago it was a sleepy island that time forgot. Then Italian developers bought over half the island (the northern part), and a new era of big development began. The vast injection of new money has rapidly transformed the island with many beautiful new homes built by locals. A big, fancy hotel and golf course opened with Trump running the Casino (on top of the hill) and offering luxury apartments and Raffles running the resort end. There are spectacular beaches, great views and lovely walks almost anywhere. Picture of Broulee looking for a spot to anchor. We found this island to be more arid then what we have seen. Lots of cactus and rock.


This was the clearest, cleanest water we have found yet. We were in the water within minutes of anchoring.

Being the jetsetters that we are, we decided to visit "The Donald" at his fabulous golf course and Raffles Resort (we forgot to bring money so can't even tell you how much a drink was).

One of the many pools and bars.

Oh, yeah this is the life!














The Golf Course and Wedding Chapel. The infinity pool overlooking the bay. Thanks Trumpster for allowing us to see how the other half live.
