St Lucia
St. Lucia presents what by most opinions is now a rarity in the Caribbean: a natural wonderland of lush, mountainous topography and a mostly undeveloped island.
Currently, St. Lucia’s assets are simple: sunshine, crystal blue waters, coconut palms, banana plantations, and radiant colors. Development is certainly occurring, but the island will continue to offer raw beauty for many years to come.
Located between Martinique and St. Vincent, Saint Lucia covers 238 square miles. This is a physically dramatic Caribbean island, with dense tropical forests, the towering peaks of Gros Piton and Petit Piton, a volcano, sulphur springs, mineral baths and secluded beaches.
Like all Caribbean islands, St Lucia enjoys a hot, tropical climate throughout the year. The average daily temperatures of 80°F (27°C) tend to be tempered by trade winds. The driest time on the island is between January and March but showers can occur throughout
the year, however they are usually over quickly.
