Fish Friday

Front Street, the main venue, runs parallel to the beach where fishing boats are pulled up next to wooden rum shops and bars. Outside these, local residents set up their barbecue grills to cook and sell the catch of the day and other specialties such as floats and accras (fish cakes).

The street is closed to traffic and chairs and tables are set out. A large number of families are always present enjoying the delicious food and drink, and the flavour of a real local get-together. The music, emanating from large speakers at the end of the street, is not overwhelming. The atmosphere is rather like a large barbecue party with very accommodating hosts.

The shops that spill out onto the beach are perfect places to find a quiet little table, off the street itself—a place where the sound of the sea mixes with the reggae and calypso from a small band that sometimes plays in a little gazebo at the top of Front Street.
