Soufrière Laundry and Cooking Gas (Cool Breeze)

13° 51.3′ N · 61° 3.3′ W

Cool Breeze service station on the east side of Soufrière sells Sol fuel and has a gas shop for cooking-gas cylinders, and two small laundries in town mean you can get through a week in Soufrière without going back north.

Practical

Coordinate is the OpenStreetMap Cool Breeze station (node 11975652617: Sol, diesel available, Monday–Thursday 6:30 am to 9 pm, Friday–Saturday 6:30 am to 10 pm, Sunday 7 am to 9 pm; phone 459-7729) with its gas shop next door (node 11975652618). This is a road station: carry jerry cans from the town jetty (about 600 m) or use the Soufrière Fishers Fuel Dock entry for alongside fuel. Bring an adapter, as fittings differ between brands. Laundries (OpenStreetMap): Palmiste Laundry (about 13.8593°N, 61.0565°W) and Barons Drive Laundry (about 13.8524°N, 61.0593°W); hours as mapped, verify locally. An older cruising report (EnezGreen, c. 2012) said Soufrière had no laundromat or propane depot; OpenStreetMap now maps both, so ask locally before relying on either.
