ST PIERRE TO ANSE ARLET, 27 April

we had stopped in this bay on our journey north (March 2016), and thought it was very nice. The 'snorkelling' was good and the setting was beautiful. However this time the sea was rough, we had difficulty on the mooring, and the air smelt strongly of burning rubbish. The habit of people on the Caribbean islands of burning rubbish is very sad, because they burn everything including all the plastic. On Martinique there is an efficient trash collection service (as in Europe) but it is not handled correctly. 
We did however find time to go ashore and watch the sunset over a couple of "petit punches"
