St. Lucia is well known for its awe-inspiring natural beauty, encompassing verdant rainforests, rolling mountains, and crystalline waters. Castries offers access to all of the island’s wonders, including its 2,000-foot-high Piton mountains, rejuvenating mud baths in Sulphur Springs, and an array of quiet, dreamy shores with dramatic backdrops. For snorkelling, head to Sugar Beach, often named one of the best strands in the Caribbean. For a more rugged, private experience, nothing compares to Grande Anse Beach.
