Senquecanahua

Senquecanahua is a Lesser Antilles tall island which is part of the Commonwealth of Antilla. It is Antilla's fourth largest island and fifth most populous. Situated about 15 km southwest of Santa Maria, Senquecanahua is known for its two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: a large coral reef home to some of the most diverse marine life, which encloses the island on all sides in a shallow lagoon, and a network of airtight underground grottos solely accessible via underwater caves, which are home to several species of flora and fungi not found anywhere else on the planet. The island's name comes from a Carib toponym meaning "nearer dugout". Huatopea is the island's most populous town and main port, which is served several times daily by ferries connecting Senquecanahua to nearby Santa Maria as well as Marquesa, Parmesa and Maurupea.
