When it comes to the best natural attractions in the Caribbean, St. Lucia is the clear winner. The 27 miles long island known as the Hawaii of the Caribbean boasts stunning sights, including a volcano, nature reserves, waterfalls, viewpoints, and more. For those who love exploring and partaking in adventurous activities, St. Lucia is the ultimate tropical paradise.
With so much to see and do, it can be challenging to narrow down the top destinations to check out, but we've got you covered!
The Pitons
The Pitons are the two iconic volcanic cones formed between 200,000 to 300,000 years ago that are St. Lucia's most well-known landmarks. They’re perfect to see both close-up or from a distance on a sunset sailing excursion. While adventurous souls can climb the Pitons with a guide, it's not for the faint at heart. The winding and steep trails make the peaks a strenuous hike, but the epic views from the top will no doubt be worth it! No matter how visitors decide to see the Pitons, they're definitely the top St. Lucia experience that shouldn’t be missed.
Mount Soufriere (Sulphur Springs Park)
Known as the world's only drive-in volcano, Soufriere is a sulphuric volcanic pit that you can drive through. The geothermal area provides opportunities for visitors to observe nature in action as pools of water bubble and vents hiss. Nearby, you can even have a skin-nourishing spa day in the famous black water pools with natural, rich minerals from the springs.
Pigeon Island National Park
Pigeon Island is a one-stop-shop destination that offers everything: hiking, breathtaking views, historical artifacts, and white sand beaches. At this former military lookout point, visitors have a clear, panoramic view across the island and the surrounding waters. A modern causeway connects Pigeon Island to the mainland, making it the perfect hike and day trip.
