The Royal Navy cadet training cruiser Frobisher (1920) in Castries harbour, St. Lucia, West Indies.

A slightly distant starboard broadside view of the Royal Navy cadet training cruiser Frobisher (1920) at moorings in Castries harbour, St. Lucia, West Indies. She has awnings rigged over her decks and boats are alongside. Alongside the wharf on the right is the cargo steamer Langleeford (1925) seen from abaft her starboard beam. Only her after part from the funnel to the stern is in the picture and it is badly obscured by tree branches. She is very lightly laden and her propeller is half out of the water. The photographer is looking north-north-east across the harbour from an elevated position between trees on the south side. The Vigie Peninsula is in the background.
