The summit of Le Soufriere was an otherworldly place! After climbing through lush and dense rainforest we ascended into a cloud-covered tropical savannah. At the top strong winds occasionally swept the clouds away to reveal the active vents of the volcano on the highest peak in the lesser Antilles. Both the rainforest and the reefs in Guadeloupe were in near pristine condition, the result of protection and responsible management. Keep a lookout for shots from Pigeon Island a Jacques Cousteau Underwater Reserve off the coast of Guadeloupe!
