St. Lucia is an island nation in the Caribbean and a beautiful nature destination. Most famous of the Pitons which are two volcanic mountains rising high above the sea. This St. Lucia travel guide covers the complete island and shows you the cultural heritage as well as natural places of interest.
There are two airports in St. Lucia: One in Castries and one on the norther tip of the island. It’s recommended to stay either near Soufriere or near Castries because these towns have all the places of interest nearby. It’s a perfect island to get away from everything and recharge.
St. Lucia is for a large part covered with dense tropical forest which allows for beautiful hikes. French and British colonial culture can be found in Castries, on Pigeon Island and in Soufriere. Although the Arawak Indians inhabited the island for a long time nothing is left of that era. Check the below articles of this St. Lucia travel guide so you will be prepared when you visit.
