Walk through the historic 350-foot tunnel hand-carved through solid volcanic basalt by the British and enslaved labor in 1815.
Located on the windward coast of Saint Vincent near Georgetown, the Black Point Tunnel (also known as the Jasper Tunnel) is a historic monument and an engineering marvel of the colonial era. Constructed in 1815 by the British using enslaved Carib and African labor, this 350-foot-long tunnel was cut through solid volcanic rock to facilitate the transport of sugar from the northern estates to ships waiting in the harbor.
