It's easy to see why Fort Charlotte is one of the most popular points of interest in St. Vincent. Set upon a hill near Edinboro, this historic structure was built between the late 1700s and early 1800s. It boasts exceptional views of Kingstown, Mt. St. Andrew, and the Grenadines.

Built to protect the area from land attacks, the fort once housed barracks that could hold 600 people and over 30 pieces of artillery. Today, you'll find a few cannons on the grounds, as well as stone walls, murals, and the barracks. We'd suggest hiring the services of a local guide, so you can enjoy a proper tour.

Be warned, it's a bit of a steep walk to reach the fort—we're talking about 40 minutes of an uphill trek. If you aren't up for the hike, hop on a bus to Edinboro, which will cut the walk to about 10 minutes.
