Banana Islands

The Banana Islands are reached only by a chartered wooden boat from Kent, and that short crossing keeps them among the least visited places on this coast worth visiting. Dublin village on the main island still has the ruins of a church and slave era cannon left where they were mounted. Snorkelling around the reef is good in calm weather and a forested ridge gives a walk with views both ways. Rusting gun emplacements left from the last war sit half swallowed by the trees. There is really and genuinely no hurry to anything on these islands.
