Fort Louis


We live aboard Terrapin because we love the freedom sailing provides and the places we travel.  We love to explore the people and the history of the islands.  Marigot Bay, where we are currently anchored, is the capital of French St Marten.  

In the 1700 and 1800s, Fort Louis was the prominent means of protection for the island...so we thought we would go on a walkabout and find out more.

Marigot Bay - hard to believe there were wars fought here
Terrapin is just over Baxter's right shoulder.
