Montserrat is a British Overseas Territory (Image: Getty) Montserrat, a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean, is an ideal destination for travelers seeking to immerse themselves in nature rather than bustling tourist hotspots. This small volcanic island boasts lush slopes teeming with flora and fauna, the active Soufrière Hills volcano, secluded black-sand beaches , and a warm, welcoming population with a unique cultural heritage. Dubbed the "Emerald Isle of the Caribbean" due to its striking resemblance to the Irish coastline, Montserrat also has a significant Irish connection.
Many of its residents are of Irish descent, and it is the only place outside of Ireland where St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated as a national holiday. This festival also commemorates an attempted rebellion by enslaved Africans against European colonizers in 1768.
