3. ST. LUCIA
St. Lucia is one of the Windward Islands, located in the middle of
the Eastern Caribbean chain. Its terrain is a combination of high
mountains, forests, low-lying lands and beaches. Mountain
ranges runs the length of the island and forests dominate the
mountains, while jasmine, scarlet chenille and wild orchids
provide splashes of color to the lush green slopes. The average
annual temperature range is 75°-85°F.
St Lucia is blessed with a year-round tropical climate that can be
divided into two seasons. The winter Dry Season runs from
November to April and boasts pleasantly warm temperatures with
low humidity and little precipitation. The summer Wet Season
runs from May to October and is accompanied by high humidity
and a bit more rain. Throughout the year, however, pleasant trade
winds keep the air cool. The heart of hurricane season lasts from
late August to early November, though strikes are rare and there
is plenty of advance notice to prepare. When threatened by a
hurricane strike, one should expect a 2-day displacement from
evacuation to safe return.

Areas Within the Destination
Northern Region: Located on the northwest coast, Castries is St Lucia's
capital city and cultural center. Worthwhile attractions include the open
Castries Market, Derek Walcott Square, and the imposing Cathedral of the
Immaculate Conception. A large, natural harbor on St Lucia's northeastern
tip, Rodney Bay includes the small fishing village of Gros Islet and the resort
area of Reduit Beach. Boating enthusiasts can enjoy a day at Rodney Bay
Marina, the island's largest yachting port. Connected to St Lucia proper by a
manmade causeway, Pigeon Island National Park features the remains of
centuries-old military bases.
Soufrière: Founded by the French in 1746, Soufrière is a bayside fishing
community on the island's southwestern shore. Named after the nearby
sulphur springs, the town emanates a provincial charm that reflects the
relaxed coastal lifestyle. An interesting stone Catholic church resides in the
town center, surrounded by weathered buildings that have stood for ages.
Spend an afternoon at the Soufrière Market, an emporium decorated with
colorful murals and gingerbread trim where shoppers can find handmade
hats, baskets, and tasty indigenous spices. Not far from here are some of St
Lucia's most impressive natural attractions, including the beautiful Diamond
Falls, the spectacular Pitons, a rain forest, and the island's highest
peak, Mount Gimie,
