There actually have been several recent reports of muggings, etc., at Ft. Louis during the day, so your car might not have been the only thing in danger. And some teenage kid was caught this week, I think, snatching someone's chain off their neck during the middle of the day at the Marina.


So glad that I didn't know that! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" />

Though we were hyper vigilant (thank you TTOL), wore our work out clothes for the hike, had nothing to snatch but a water bottle or camera.
Hubby is 6'2", military, and would kick someone's a**.
In fact he was becoming exasperated with my admonishments not to leave ANYTHING in the car.....even our beach towels, which would have cost us $25 a piece (as they made us sign for them) had they been taken. Yes, they are only towels darling, but I just don't want the hassle or argument!

We went to Marigot twice. Once on a Sunday, and then on a busy Thursday afternoon. I felt safe-ish on a church day and a business day. But we did make sure to avoid cruise ship days, as we wanted to get in/get out, and be assured of finding parking.
