Our islands are still beautiful. It’s true there are some significant challenges and I agree with the uglification by greed thing…but hopefully that process is about to be halted and going forward we can begin to undue the damage that’s been done. But make no mistake…this is still an amazing place.

National Parks are built on. Marine reserves are dredged and desecrated. If you want Miami Beach - you now have TCI's version. If you want unspoilt beaches, pristine coral reefs it's too late to find them in TCI. You'll need to go elsewhere. Just search the internet for "Star Island". You could also lobby the eco NGOs and ask the government why they think they can improve on nature.
