Former slave compound, now a shopping district with some of the finest stores and restaurants on the island.
Conveniently located near the cruise ship terminal, The Goldsmitty is a nice, locally owned jewelry store. We highly recommend the advertised antiguanite. We chose to polish our own stone and were taken upstairs to select a precut stone to polish. We learned about the stone - petrified coral - and its variations. The artisan then demonstrated how to polish them and then we took over. After polishing the stone using 6 different grits, it was ready to be set. We love that we were able to learn about the stone, experience the process, and take home a beautiful keepsake.

British fort built in the 17th century to protect the entrance of St. John's harbor.
Took a walk around to soak up some history. All the cannons and the powder room remains as does the perimeter wall. What a labour intense job to build all of this back when no machines were available to assist. Very impressive!

British fort looming dramatically over the shoreline, built in 1779 to protect the British island from the French.
We hiked her from the Royalton Resort. Amazing 360 degree views of the Island and ocean. Can even see the outline of the wreck of the Andes.

Religious and architectural landmark, a beautiful neo-Baroque building looming largely over the city of St. John's.
Outside the cathedral looks quite scruffy and in need of attention. The inside is quite stunning. So much timber and clearly restored recently. I hope they find the money to restore the outside as well soon. Make sure you visit if you are in St Johns. We walked up from the cruise port.
