The harbour and town at Castries, St. Lucia, West Indies.

The harbour and town at Castries, St. Lucia, West Indies. The photographer is looking north-east-by-north from the summit of a hill to the south of the town showing a number of 2-masted schooners alongside the wharves. The cable ship Cable Enterprise (1924), seen from abaft her starboard beam, is alongside the wharf close to shore and beyond her, moored bow-on to the shore is an unidentified cable ship that appears to be laid up. The whole of the surrounding countryside is heavily forested.
