With the increased activity by the Soufriere Hills Volcano on Montserrat island, now is the time for pleasure seekers and adventure enthusiasts to travel to a destination for a first hand view of this geological phenomenon.

All the businesses and ports are open and operating normally, including flights to the Airport John A Osborne and ferry services from Antigua to the port at Little Bay. Leisure travelers have the opportunity to see the volcano safely from several vantage points including the Montserrat Volcano Observatory (MVO) and Jack Boy Hill.

The Montserrat Tourist Board has proclaimed the 15th Annual Montserrat Fishing Tournament Open success. Held on October 31, 2009, the show pulled the participation of 27 fishermen in eight boats, including five ships from the neighboring island of Nevis.

Along with strong support from visitors and local residents the same, also a successful event took the Minister of Agriculture, Easton Taylor Farrell and Director of Tourism, Ernestine Cassell, both on hand to welcome visiting boats and help during the prize ceremony.

Montserrat, the only country outside of Ireland to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day as a national holiday, to live in the Caribbean right-style with week-long series of celebrations surrounding this annual event. For the 2010 celebration, held 13-20 March, travelers looking for a little more than four-leaf clover and a pint of Guinness can take advantage of the St. Patrick’s Day in the Emerald Isle package offered in a variety of villas and guest houses all around the island.

Paying tribute to the cultural goals, talents and creativity, a unique island of Montserrat will celebrate the annual carnival, known as the Festival, from December 4, 2009 – January 1, 2010. Goal to be alive with music, feasting and the events that highlight the people resilient and energetic Montserrat.

Inlet must be the most bizarre-looking national capital you have ever seen. Apart from a few huts on the beach and the collection of shops known as the festival village, there are only two magnificent buildings and lots of dust.

Both market structure and Cultural Center. And if they looked like they had just been removed from wrapping paper, it is because they possess. Cultural Center, in particular, looked spectacular out of place. This art, performance and media facilities are arguably the most up-to-date throughout the Caribbean region. And it is expected that he will be one focal point in the city being built from scratch.

Little Bay is north of Montserrat and, 20 years ago, it was nothing. That’s the part of the island looks just right for wandering goats. Capital was (and still technically) Plymouth, south-west of this small Caribbean island. That was before the volcano moves. Soufriere Hills volcano that is inactive for more than 400 years before it began erupting in 1995. It is still active and many of Montserrat have been buried in ash and mud as a result.
