Plymouth: the abandoned capital of Montserrat

Plymouth is the former capital of the British Overseas Territory of Montserrat, located in the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean Sea. The city was once the political, commercial and cultural center of the island, with a busy harbor and colonial architecture. However, in 1995, the ongoing eruption of the Montsoufriere volcano changed its fate forever.

Volcanic Disaster and "Modern Pompeii"

Between 1995 and 1997, the violent activity of the Montsoufriere volcano led to Plymouth being buried in thick ash and mudslides, with two-thirds of the island becoming off-limits. The entire city was abandoned and became known as "Modern Pompeii". Today, Plymouth remains in the volcanic danger zone and visitors can only see this city frozen in time from the sea by boat.

Geography and Status

Montserrat is located about 40 kilometers southwest of Antigua, and Plymouth sits on the southwest coast of the island. After the volcanic disaster, the island's government moved to Blazey in the north and the remains of Plymouth became a unique disaster tourist attraction. Parts of the island have reopened, but the south, including Plymouth, remains off-limits and is closely monitored by the Montserrat Volcano Observatory.
