FOND LATISAB CREOLE PARK - A TOUR OF CREOLE
CULTURE
$49 Per Person
Your ship will dock in Castries and you will
soon find yourself winding through the beautiful hills and valleys to
the interior of the island. The lush tropical scenery gives off a rich
premonition of what is to come.
Upon your arrival at the Fond Latisab Creole Park, you will experience
Creole traditions and practices that are still enjoyed today. You will
be able to see the preparation of farine and cassava bread in the
ancient Amerindian manner. You can watch the traditional method of
cooking food on macambou leaves. Perhaps one of the St. Lucians will let
you help in catching crayfish in the rivers.
From log-sawing to the hypnotizing rhythms of the Creole music, you will
feel fully inducted into the traditions of this rich culture.
You might even be able to learn a few words of Patois, the language of
Creole heavily laced with French, African and English grammar.
