St Lucia
Dramatic volcanoes, flower-filled rainforests, crashing waterfalls, idyllic beaches… luscious St Lucia is an island of spectacular contrasts.
Distinctly French but with English, African and Caribbean influences, popular St Lucia has a culture as rich as the local Creole stew. Explore the capital Castries with its colourful market or stunning Soufrière, where the twin peaks of the Pitons point as proud as a Gaultier bra. Sit under swaying palms on sugar-white beaches or don a mask and fins and go swim with the fish.

Soufrière – Home to the world’s only drive-in volcano, where you can pick your way between bubbling mud craters, hissing steam pools and pungent sulphur springs!
Diamond Falls and Mineral Baths – Marvel at this multi-coloured waterfall which bubbles up from the sulphur springs below, then take to the waters for a restorative bath.
Marigot Bay – Grab your camera and click away at the beautiful palm-fringed bay where Dr Doolittle talked to the animals in the famous Sixties musical.
