Interests (rated ): Nature ; Adventure ; Culture ; Relaxation-holidays .
Nature-Adventure
A good part of the coastline, especially the southern section, offers beautiful wild nature and pleasant landscapes. However, the island isn’t really an adventure destination.
Culture
As is often the case in the Caribbean, the country has benefited from a mix of populations that ultimately shaped Saint Lucia’s unique identity. This can be discovered in everyday life, during festivals, celebrations, and carnival, as well as through a few monuments, museums, or material traces of its history.
Relaxation-Holidays
This is Saint Lucia’s (very) strong point and its specialty...
Independent Travel
Saint Lucia is a very easy destination for independent travel, perfect for beginner travelers. That said, backpacking isn’t particularly favored—or even appreciated—here.
Package and All-Inclusive Travel
While the island is a major tourist destination and a popular honeymoon spot, it isn’t a top choice for French travelers. As a result, there are few organized trips from France, except with a few regional specialists offering all-inclusive packages, "flight + hotel" deals, and especially cruises. More options are available from Quebec and Canada.
