The Royal Navy heavy cruiser Exeter (1929) in Castries harbour, St. Lucia, West Indies.
A distant starboard broadside view of the Royal Navy heavy cruiser Exeter (1929) at anchor in Castries harbour, St. Lucia, West Indies. The photographer is looking north-north-east from the hill to the south of the harbour showing the cruiser on the left almost completely hidden by trees and everything aft of her bridge is out of the picture. She has an awning rigged over her forecastle. A few 2-masted schooners are alongside the wharves and one is under sail. The town is on the right and the Vigie Peninsula is in the background.
