Lesser
Antilles eco holidays
These include the Virgin
Islands, the Windward Islands and Leeward Islands.
The Windward
Islands are southeastern islands of the Caribbean
and include Martinique,
St. Lucia
and Grenada.
They're called the Windward Islands because they're
exposed to the wind ("windward") of
the northeast trade winds (northeasterlies).
The Leeward
Islands include the Virgin
Islands, Dominica,
Guadeloupe,
Montserrat,
Antigua,
Barbuda,
St. Kitts,
Nevis,
and Anguilla.
They're called the Leeward Islands because they're
away from the wind ("lee").
