Tours & Activities in Saint Lucia

Saint Lucia is the only country in the world named after a woman, Saint Lucy of Syracuse, and its flag is the only national flag depicting a different country's symbols (the French and British crowns).

The Pitons, two UNESCO World Heritage volcanic spires rising 2,600 feet from the sea near Soufrière, are among the most iconic natural landmarks in the Caribbean.

Saint Lucia changed hands between French and British rule 14 times—more than any other Caribbean island—earning it the nickname 'Helen of the West Indies'.

The island is home to the world's only drive-in volcanic sulfur springs, where you can bathe in naturally heated mineral water at Diamond Falls Botanical Gardens.

Saint Lucia produces world-class cacao and cocoa, with the heritage variety known as 'criollo' grown in the lush interior valleys since colonial times.

The island celebrates its French and African heritage through Carnival (held in February/March) and Jounen Kwéyòl (Creole Day in October), both featuring traditional music, dance, and local cuisine.
