Prince Charles and Camilla Arrive in the Caribbean

The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall are in the Caribbean for an official 11-day tour. They arrived in the island of Trinidad via the capital Port of Spain yesterday, March 4. They will be also visit Tobago, St. Lucia, Jamaica and Montserrat to promote sustainable development, environmental protection and youth opportunity, issues that are close to Prince Charles’ heart.

Under clear blue skies and brilliant sunshine they left the yacht which was moored in a coastguard base just outside the capital.

Dozens of sailors from the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force Coastguard lined the dock as a guard of honour waiting to be inspected by The Prince, who walked towards them along a concrete jetty laid with red carpet.

The Prince was joined by Trinidad’s Chief of Defence Staff Brigadier Edmond Dillon as he walked along the rows of sailors, while The Duchess, who wore a short sleeved ivory dress, sheltered from the sun under a parasol.
