Fodor's Expert Review Montserrat National Trust Botanical Gardens

The MNT's main headquarters and collections relocated to Little Bay's Montserrat National Museum in 2012. But the lovingly tended botanical gardens and nature trails at the original site make for a pleasant, self-guided stroll. Among the plants are herbs used in folkloric medicine, former economic staples like Sea Island cotton and limes, and uniquely indigenous flora. A collection of endemic orchids, found in the hills, is on display in the Orchid House. You'll also find charming local keepsakes in the gift shop on the premises.
