Massy Stores Vieux Fort

13° 43.9′ N · 60° 57.1′ W

The Massy supermarket in Vieux Fort town, the best place for a full shop at the south end of the island before crossing to St Vincent or after collecting crew from Hewanorra airport.

Practical

Coordinate is the OpenStreetMap supermarket node 'Massy's' (5278248224) in the town centre beside the banks; Super J (Monday–Saturday 9 am to 8 pm, Sunday 9 am to 6 pm per OpenStreetMap) and Greene's Supermarket are a few steps away, with bakeries (Morne Bakery, Ideal Bakery) and Bacadere Laundry nearby. Noonsite (March 2024): provisioning is good, with a couple of well-stocked supermarkets in malls near town and fresh produce in Vieux Fort itself; there is a very good fish market; gas bottles can be filled directly at the Shell depot down by the commercial wharf. Road fuel at several Rubis stations in town (jerry cans). Security: Noonsite strongly advises against staying overnight in Vieux Fort and recommends keeping crew aboard and the boat locked if you stop by day; most crews provision by taxi from Laborie or from Soufrière instead.
