The beautiful 40-acre botanic gardens teem with mature banyan, century palms and ficus trees along with flowering tropical shrubs. It’s a great place for a wander and a picnic on the expansive lawns. A must-see is the Parrot Conservation and Research Centre , an aviary housing rare Jaco and Sisserou parrots. ‘Jack’s Walk ’, the short but steep and winding half-mile trail to the top of Morne Bruce, starts behind the aviary.
