Vista point · Saint Thomas

@afar

"One of the island's best lookouts, Drake's Seat offers a panoramic view of Magens Bay and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands to the east. The site is named for Sir Francis Drake, who is said to have kept watch over the harbor from this vantage point. (WasDrake benevolently watching over his own fleet or looking for ships to plunder? The answerwill depend on whether you subscribe to theBritish's regard of himas a celebrated explorer or toothers' belief that he was a brutal privateer.)"
