Port Royal
Before it was devasted by a huge earthquake in 1692, it was known as the evilest place on earth. It was home to swashbuckling pirate and buccaneers who roam the seas stealing and looting. Later in the 17th century it was home to the Brish Nav. Now it is a sleepy fishing village and draws visitors interested in learning about the island's heritage or just to enjoy the views of the seas while eating fish and bammy at the waters edge. Must see: the museum, the naval base and giddy house. View Website
