|  |  |  |  |  |  | St Lucia is the sort of island that travellers to the Caribbean dream about a small, lush tropical gem that is still relatively unknown. One of the Windward Islands of the Lesser Antilles, it is located midway down the Eastern Caribbean chain, between Martinique and St. Vincent, and north of Barbados. Mountainous and lush, this jewel of the Windwards is a place of natural wonders where you are greeted with warm hospitality. It's a volcanic island where the twin peaks of The Pitons rise over 2,000 feet at the water's edge. Further inland, the rain forests shelter wild orchids, giant ferns and birds of paradise. You can visit Soufriére, the world's only drive-in volcano, or relax in the earth's rejuvenating heat in the pools at Diamond Baths. And spend an evening in Marigot Bay, one of the most beautiful in the Caribbean. Just when you tire of palm-fringed beaches, secluded anchorages and dive sites in every direction, there's the incredible Friday night "jump-up" at Gros Islet on Rodney Bay.
Diving :
St. Lucia's warm clear waters and numerous spectacular reefs and marine life offer a perfect environment for both beginners and expert divers. Many hotels offer scuba diving facilities and snorkelling equipment and there are a number of independent dive centers offering short boat dives, night dives and a variety of scuba courses.
Saint Lucia Marina & starting points :
Rodney Bay
Within this well protected lagoon there are many opportunities for provisions, fuel and water, boat repairs and anything else a sailor could possible need. You will find excellent French Creole cuisines throughout Saint Lucia. Seafood includes fresh local crab, lobster and conch, a large shellfish served from a barbecue or cooked in a delicious spicy sauce.
Marigot Bay
The most beautiful Bay in the Caribbean. Surrounded by lively bars and restaurants Marigot Bay is a beautiful, tranquil haven ideal for those who want to chill out and have some fun at the same time.. Marigot has 24-hour/day security and is a port of entry for the island.
Opening onto the Caribbean sea, Marigot Bay is conveniently situated 20 minutes South of Castries, the Island's Capital City, 45 minutes South of Pigeon Island National Park and 60 minutes North of the majestic Pitons.
Strong points :
In addition to the wide variety of opportunities to hike, watch birds, and tour St. Lucia's outstanding natural attractions, the island is replete with a full range of recreational facilities. Visitors may enjoy the leisurely pleasures of touring the island by horse, or relax with a round of golf amid St. Lucia's entrancing natural beauty. There are also a number of activities more closely related to the traditional life of St. Lucia, including deep-sea fishing, weekly "jump-ups" at Gros Islet, and visits to the weekly market at Castries.
