About St. Lucia

St. Lucia is the Caribbean island that looks too dramatic to be real. The twin Pitons — Gros Piton and Petit Piton — rise straight out of the sea like something from a fantasy novel, and they dominate every view on the island's southwest coast. Between them lies Sugar Beach, one of the most photographed beaches in the world. The island packs an absurd amount into its small size: drive-in volcanic hot springs at Sulphur Springs, zip-lining through rainforest canopy, snorkeling in marine reserves, and cocoa plantation tours. It's the most romantic island in the Caribbean and it knows it.
