Sulphur Springs

TIME : 2016/2/18 15:39:00

Looking like something off the surface of the moon, the Sulphur Springs are saddled with the unfortunate tagline of being the world’s only drive-in volcano. The reality is far from the garish description. There isn’t a crater, or a cauldron of magma, to check out – you’ll have to be content with a bit of stinky, boiling muck. Bubbling mud is observed from platforms surrounded by vents releasing sulfur gas. It’s a couple of miles south of Soufrière, off the Vieux Fort road.
