The Caribbean island of St Lucia is home to beautiful, volcanic, palm-fringed beaches, excellent reef-diving sites, countless little luxury resorts and some charming fishing villages.

With a lush interior featuring soaring mountains, dense rain forest, fertile valleys, and acres of banana plantations, St. Lucia is mostly distinguished by the Pitons - a pair of dramatically tapered mountains on the southwest coast.

Hike through the rainforest to discover magnificent waterfalls, zip-line over forest canopies or see boiling sulphur springs bubble away atop a volcano.

If you’ve still got the energy for a night out, you will find a lively party scene the north of the island. Whether you're after romance, rejuvenation or adventure, Saint Lucia is the perfect destination.
