Port Royal
Parim aeg külastamiseks
It is best to come in the morning before 10 AM, before the tourist groups arrive and while the weather is most pleasant for a walk. On weekdays, you will have the entire place almost all to yourself.
Eelarvenõuanded
Entry to the Port Royal museum costs about 10 USD per person, and on Saturdays there is a discount for locals. If you plan to visit multiple landmarks, the combined package with Fort Charles is more cost-effective.
Soovitatav

Teave
Kiired faktid: Kunagi kõige rikkam linn Briti läänepoolsetes kolooniates, Port Royal neelati 1692. aastal maavärina ja tsunami poolt vaid mõne minutiga. Tänapäeval asub suurem osa linnast vee all ja sajandeid hiljem tõstavad sukeldujad ikka veel kuldmünte ja artefakte selle uppunud tänavatelt.
Esiletõstmised: Vaiksete lahelainete all peitub ainus täielikult säilinud 17. sajandi linn maailmas, hoonetega, mis on jäänud puutumata hetkest, mil meri need alla neelas. Sukeldumine vaid 12 meetri sügavusele paljastab tellisseinu, rummipudeleid ja portselanitükke, mis kolm sajandit tagasi kuulusid piraatidele ja kaupmeestele.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Bring lightweight closed-toe shoes; the paths around the ruins are uneven and full of stones.
- Take the best photos of the sunken city from the pier in the early morning light when the sea is calmest.
- Skip the souvenir shop at the entrance; you will find more authentic souvenirs at the market in downtown Kingston.
- If you suffer from seasickness, take a pill before the boat ride to the nearby reefs.
