Out and about nearby
The island of St Lucia is small enough to maintain the rustic tropical island feel, but large enough to provide a huge range of day-time and evening activities. The capital of the island, Castries, is situated in the crater of an extinct volcano, and so offers excellent scenery as well as a real Caribbean feel. Here, you can also look around the market of fruit, veg, and handicrafts such as pottery. Derek Walcott Square offers a peaceful atmosphere, beautiful views, and colonial architecture. Pigeon Island National Historic Park is the first of its kind in St Lucia, joined to the mainland by a causeway; it is home to two stunning white sandy beaches, abundant tropical plant and wildlife, an eclectic local restaurant, and a network of ruins. The resort also offers sailing, snorkelling, and diving trips that help guests become better acquainted with the Caribbean sealife, amongst the reef of Anse Cochon or in the clear waters around Saline Point. Inland excursions take you past waterfalls, the Pitons, and over volcanoes; or, go birdwatching in the forest, or make your own chocolate on a historic cocoa estate.

About St Lucia
An Expressions tailor-made holiday to St Lucia is an opportunity to explore a lush, fertile island of volcanic peaks, rainforest and banana plantations which stands at the heart of the Windward Islands. Bitterly contested in bygone centuries by the British and French, St Lucia’s history is reflected today in the creole architecture and cuisine and the impossibly difficult to understand patois. The great range of luxury hotels and resorts on the island ensures that there is the perfect destination for every type of holiday. For example, Anse Chastanet is a charming hotel which offers a true flavour of the Caribbean whilst existing in harmony with its natural surroundings, whilst Sugar Beach offers luxurious accommodation with modern facilities in a stunning location. The character and aspect of the island of St Lucia between the north around Castries and the south around Soufrière is vastly different. In the north you have the bays, coves and sheltered harbours, white sandy beaches and tourist resorts whereas the south is famous for the volcanic, forest-covered Pitons, sulphur springs and rain forest. The north of St Lucia will appeal if you want a luxury Caribbean beach holiday with comfortable, contemporary accommodation and the possibility of venturing out for days, and the south is to be recommended for those who want the experience of life in a lush, tropical environment with the close proximity of the rainforest.
Highlights of St Lucia
Banana plantations. Creole architecture and gaily coloured houses in the villages. Jazz festival in May. Creole dishes of plantain, breadfruit, yam and christophene. Exuberant flowers, parrots and humming birds. Lush rainforest walks. Waterfalls, sulphur springs and botanical gardens. The poetry of Nobel prize winner Derek Walcott. Fishing towns of Anse la Raye, Canaries and Soufriere. Boat trips along the coast are also possible and afford breath-taking views of the mountains.
Travel around St Lucia
The west coast road from Castries to Soufrière has a good surface and width and just winds up and down the length of the coast. The scenery is dramatic and well worth experiencing by hire car. Signposting in Castries is almost non-existent so be armed with a detailed map but be prepared to get lost a little. South of Castries, Soufrière and Hewanorra airport are well signposted.
