Metroji clue #14

Kingstown in five emoji

Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

The capital of a country that is one volcanic island plus a scattering of small ones. The clue splits neatly between the big island and the chain.

What each emoji refers to

The first Pirates of the Caribbean film built its port set at Wallilabou, and parts of it are still standing.
La Soufrière erupted in 2021 and covered the north of the island in ash.
Bananas carried the economy for most of the twentieth century and still matter to the growers.
The Grenadines are a sailing chain, and most of the smaller islands are reached by boat rather than plane.
The reefs at the Tobago Cays sit inside a marine park with turtles in the shallows.
