Caribbean Pod Notes A131 Puerto Rico - Isla Culebra and Imray-Iolaire Isla de Vieques CHARTS FOR THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN ABOUT THIS CHART Compiled by DM Street Jnr This chart has been compiled by D M Street Jr using official sources and additional information acquired during more than 50 years of cruising, racing, exploring, chartering and charting the eastern Caribbean on his 46’ engineless yawl Iolaire, built in 1905. He is the author of many yachting books and articles, first of which was ‘Going South’ Yachting, 1964. His Cruising Guide to the Lesser Antilles is regarded as ‘the book that opened the Caribbean to the cruising yachtsman and made bare boat IMPORTANT chartering possible’. It is worth reading for its nostalgic view of the Caribbean in the 1950s and ‘60s.

    May 1, 2016 Lazy Bones Update: British Virgin Islands (BVI’s), U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico Our last update left off with us setting sail on March 14th from St Maarten, the most northerly of the Leeward Islands, to the British Virgin Islands (BVI’s). Our destination was the island of Virgin Gorda, 84 miles northwest. We left St. Maarten at 5:30 AM and experienced rain squalls most of the day, but we averaged over eight knots and even hit 10.2 knots! We arrived at Virgin Gorda North Sound at 3:30 PM and anchored off Prickly Pear Island. The next morning we took the dinghy across the sound to Gun Creek and cleared in with customs. We came back to Lazy Bones and motor-sailed over to the Bitter End Yacht Club (BEYC), anchored outside the mooring field, and went ashore for lunch. The BEYC is a unique nautical resort that caters to all yachtsmen. They have a small marina, several restaurants, friendly bars, a small grocery store, bungalows, Wi-Fi, a pool, and much more. It’s a great place to hang out, have some drinks, and enjoy a nice meal. At 4:30 we took the dinghy over to Saba Rock for happy hour. This tiny island was owned by Bert Kilbride, a big enthusiast for SCUBA diving, back in the fifties. In the sixties Bert opened the Pirates Pub, set up a few moorings, and Saba Rock became the local sailors’ hangout. In 1997, he sold out to a developer who built an amazing resort on this tiny piece of rock.

  • Tourism Research in the British Virgin Islands
    Prairie Perspectives 89 Chasing Twenty-first Century smokestacks: tourism research in the British Virgin Islands John Everitt, Department of Geography, Brandon University Abstract: “Chasing Smokestacks” has become well-known if not complimentary terminology to describe the actions of villages, towns, regions, and countries wanting instant economic development, often at almost any cost. In the past the smokestack referred to was a conventional industry – such as Maple Leaf Pork or J.R. Simplot (fertilizer production) in Brandon, or oil refineries and alumina smelters in St. Thomas (U.S. Virgin Islands). The contemporary smokestack for many places, such as the British Virgin Islands, is tourism — ironically stereotypified by the large smoke-stacked cruise ships of the Holland America Line or Cunard ships such as the Queen Mary 2. Although mass tourism cruise ships are only one part of the BVI tourist puzzle, they are seen to be important both financially and symbolically and are accepted at almost any cost. But tourism in the BVI is much more than what many feel are ‘down-market’ cruise ships and short-stay beach tourists. The BVI are also aiming for ‘up-market visitors’ such as those who own or rent yachts, dive and/or snorkel, as well as snowbirds who stay for greater lengths of time and expats who settle-in for several years and contribute significantly both to the economy and society of the Islands. Many of the former stay on their (or rented) yachts, buy from local businesses, and frequent locals restaurants and bars The snowbirds and expats typically live in large, expensive homes or villas that are keeping the construction industry at full stretch.

  • Bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb List of World Languages
    Appendix B bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb List of World Languages Languages are constantly changing. As they grow and evolve, they can branch off or con- verge. Many languages are known by more than one name, or have alternate spellings. Some languages may be affected by political change. Even linguists differ in their defini- tions of language. While it is impossible to ascertain exactly how many languages exist on Earth, The Ethnologue, 14th Ed., lists 6,809 living languages worldwide. The following list was adapted from The World Factbook 2002, The Ethnologue, 14th Ed., and the Directory of Languages Spoken by Students of Limited English Proficiency in New York State Programs. What may seem like a language omission or oversight may be a difference in spelling or variation on the name. The list below may not be complete or all-inclusive; however, much effort went into making it as accurate as possible.

  • Snorkeling, Sailing and Fishing As Well
    THE BEST OF 1 PUERTO RICO t’s only the size of Connecticut, but Puerto Rico pulsates with more life than any other island in the Caribbean. IWhether it’s the beat of bomba y plena, salsa, or reggae- ton, there’s a party going on here 24/7. The four million people who live here have perfected the art of having fun on their dazzling island, and visitors are free to join right in. Puerto Ricans love their island and take pride in showing off its charms, which makes them among the world’s great hosts. Especially on weekends, there seems to be something going on just about everywhere—whether it’s an art fair in Old San Juan, a pig roast in the rural mountain area outside town, or a volleyball competition or free concert on the beach in Isla Verde. More so than on any other island, visitors are more likely to rub elbows with locals in Puerto Rico because so many of them are out enjoying themselves. For island hotels and restaurants, local residents are an important and loyal part of their clientele. Puerto Rico is blessed with towering mountains, rainforests, white sandy beaches along Caribbean shores, and a vibrant culture forged from a mix of Caribbean, Hispanic, African, and U.S. influences. Culture vultures will find a wealth of historic buildings and monuments, many of them dating back some 500 years to the Spanish conquistadors. There are three world-class museums and a thriving gallery scene in San Juan. The city is more intimate but just as exciting as Miami or Las Vegas, and the sophisticated fashion sense of the city and its inhabitants will genu- inely impress visitors.
