The bayside town of Soufrière was founded by the French in 1746 and named after nearby sulphur springs. The coastal Pitons provide a scenic backdrop to the south and the island's highest peaks rise above the rainforest just a few miles inland. Like other fishing communities along the coast, Soufrière has lots of old weathered buildings: some still adorned with delicate trim, others more ramshackle. There's an interesting stone Catholic church in the town center. On the northern side of the dock is the Soufrière Market, where you can buy baskets, straw hats and spices. Although most visitors to Soufrière daytrip on tours, the town's relaxed provincial character is really only appreciated by those who stay overnight.
