Things to See & Do
Discover Castries, St. Lucia's bustling capital which is home to some beautiful colonial architecture, the La Toc Battery, the Central Library, the Derek Walcott Square which is the old centre of town where a 400-year-old samaan tree shades the uniquely decorated Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, built in 1897. There is excellent shopping in the town market and Bagshaws, where the art of silkscreening can be observed.
Gaze in awe at the magnificent Pitons, two extinct volcanoes that are St Lucia’s most famous landmarks - Petit Piton (2438 ft) and Gros Piton (2618ft) - or if you’re feeling energetic local guides will help you tackle the challenging climb.
Take a guided tour through the rainforest – choose from the Descartiers Trail at Soufriere and the Barre Del’isle Trail – and watch the birds at Bois d’Orange Swamp and Boriel’s Pond.
Soar above the rainforest on a canopy tour. Adrenaline lovers can fly along a series of ziplines from 30 to 150m (100 to 500ft) in length connecting nine platforms 9 to 15m (30 to 50ft) above the ground.
Windsurf from the sandy beach of Anse de Sable, ideal for both novice and expert, or for more of a challenge for the more experienced surfers ride the waves at Cas en Bas and Vieux Fort.
Explore the underwater world and try snorkelling or scuba-diving to spot turtles, nurse sharks and seahorses. Popular diving sites include Anse Chastanet, Anse Le Raye, the Coral Gardens at the base of the Gros Piton, Fairy Land at the base of Anse Chastanet, and the Lesleen M Shipwreck and Superman's Flight.
Go whale watching and see up to 20 species, including sperm whales, pilot whales and humpbacks.
Visit the national landmark, Pigeon Island, a 40-acre islet connected by a causeway to St. Lucia's west coast which reflects a thousand years of history from the ancient Arawak artefacts left by the first Carib Indian settlers to the military buildings from the island's role in the French/British battles during colonization which include the remains of an 18th-century British fort and Fort Rodney, where the Admiral for which it is named spied on the French ships from its strategic viewpoint. The Pigeon Island Museum is housed in a landmark former British officers' mess building, restored to its 1808 elegance.
Stop by one of the picturesque villages on the island – Anse la Raye is a colourful fishing village where locals make dug-out canoes from gum trees; Choiseul is rich in history, crafts and spectacular views and home to a petroglyph carved centuries ago by the island’s early inhabitants.
Sail into Marigot Bay, a secluded, palm-fringed yachtsman’s paradise above which lies Cul de Sac, an area of three large banana plantations where the original Dr Doolittle was filmed.
Wander around Soufrière, which takes its name from the volcano and is the oldest town in St Lucia, known for its unusual marketplace decorated with colourful murals and gingerbread trim.
