St Lucia lies 21 miles south of its nearest neighbour, Martinique, 24 miles north of St. Vincent and 100 miles north-west of Barbados. This 238 square mile island is the second largest of the Windward Island chain, a sub-group of islands within the West Indies.
The Island is made up of majestic mountain peaks falling into rainforest, picturesque fishing villages, gracious town squares and beautiful beaches. It is for travelers seeking pleasure and enrichment through the wonder of the undiscovered, the adventure of the unfamiliar, the freshness of the unspoiled and the stimulation of the exotic. Diving, snorkeling, sailing, yachting, wind surfing, hiking, running and trail riding are just a few of the adventure activities awaiting you in St. Lucia.
Tourism is vital to St. Lucia’s economy and the economic importance of such is expected to continue to increase as the market for bananas becomes more competitive. St Lucia property tends to be popular due to the island’s tropical weather and scenery and its large number of beaches and resorts. Other tourist attractions include the world’s only drive-in volcano, Sulfur Springs (at Soufriere), the Botanical Gardens, the rain forests and Pigeon Island National Park, which is home to Fort Rodney, an old British military base.
