| Description |
Canouan is just five square miles in size and formerly a community of sailors and fishermen. The now expanding local populous still includes fishermen, proud of their community heritage as boat builders and harvesters of the sea. Models of the traditional wooden boats are still lovingly constructed by hand. Laughter prevails as a vital ingredient of this community, and the sounds of happy children and elders create a feeling of traveling into an easier place and time. Canouan manages to retain a distinct quality inherited from another time in history, another age. |
