If you answered “Yes, yes and yes”, then we have just the destination for you! St. Lucia is just as perfect for your annual family vacation as it is for that romantic rendezvous with your main squeeze. Let’s take a look at some fun things to see and do while you’re there!
The Pitons Mountains
You can’t visit St. Lucia without seeing the Pitons Mountains. These beauties are one of the most well-known landmarks on the island and are absolutely stunning. If you’re not too busy snapping pictures of the towering green peaks, you may want to go and get your hike on (we see you, adventure-seeker). Put on some sturdy shoes and get ready for the time of your life. But remember, this excursion may not be for complete beginners. Seasoned pro? Rock on!
Cascading Waterfalls
Ever seen a waterfall in real life? Well, if you’re heading to St. Lucia for vacay, you’re in for a treat! Make some time to visit Soufrier, home to fragrant botanical gardens and–you guessed it–some pretty rad waterfalls. Over at Diamond Falls, you’ll walk along beautiful paths bursting with lush foliage and take a dip in refreshing springs. If you’re looking for a romantic excursion to enjoy with the one you love, this dreamy oasis has it all.
Souvenirs Galore
You’re having a ton of fun in the sun, but you also made a mental note to bring back some goodies for friends and family along the way. Lucky for you, St. Lucia is packed with local shops that offer some amazing souvenirs. From hand-made, brightly painted masks to expertly woven baskets and beautifully designed jewelry, you really can’t go wrong no matter what you choose. Oh, and don’t forget to bring a little something home for yourself. You deserve it!
