Majestic Pitons rise behind sweeping tropical rainforest and golden sands on the ‘most scenic island in the Caribbean’.

At St Lucia’s joyful heart, quaint streets are alive with open-air markets brimming with colourful vegetables, zesty fruits, fragrant spices and handmade art. While on the sparkling coasts, an abundance of water sports and beachside activities can be enjoyed. Former fishing village, Gros Islet, with its gentle marinas and peaceful waters is picture-perfect paradise and on Friday nights, it bursts into life with steel drums and calypso during the weekly street party. Meanwhile, on the more tranquil west coast, you can indulge in a mineral-rich volcanic mudbath at historic Soufriere before rinsing off under the exhilarating spray of the natural waterfalls.

Popular with both honeymooners and families, a luxury St Lucia holiday promises laid-back Caribbean living with a zesty carnival twist.
