Slow Down for Iguanas and Agoutis

Montserrat boasts very conservative speed limits and for good reason. With the winding roads and hills, speed can be your enemy.

While driving on the road, be sure to take your time and observe the speed limits which max out at 30mph in Little Bay.

Especially in Woodlands, St. Peters and the roads surrounding the Centre Hills, be on the look out for iguanas and agoutis. They have a reputation for zigging and zagging which makes it difficult to predict whether they will get to the other side of the road or change their minds right as you decide to drive on.

There are only a few speed bumps around so please observe them.

Corners can sometimes hide ditches so take them with some caution.
