Volcanic St Lucia is characterised by mountains and thick forest, but also boasts great beaches, upscale hotels, and towns buzzing with Caribbean food and music.


The island, situated between Martinique and St Vincent and the Grenadines, is a staple for couples and honeymooners. But St Lucia is as good for adventure as peace and relaxation, with strong hiking, wildlife watching, diving and sailing offerings.


On this page you’ll find some of Travel Weekly’s best features about St Lucia, plus information from elsewhere on the web. You can also find out more about our sponsor Elite Island Resorts’ all-inclusive resorts in St Lucia.
