Program Description:

This park is located on St. John, a sunny Caribbean island set in azure seas. In this program, naturalist Sue Ellen Fast swims briefly with an endangered hawksbill sea turtle as she discovers the varied life of this tropical reef of the Caribbean sea. She investigates "ice" along the sea shores which turns out to be salt. She explores and contrasts the life of the low dry slopes and the high wet slopes of this wind swept volcanic island. And she finds evidence of past cultures - petroglyphs which tell of a prehistoric aboriginal culture, and the ruins of a sugar plantation which speak of more recent times when blacks were enslaved to work for the sugar trade.
