Just Back From…St. Lucia

KKTWW Updates_St Lucia

St. Lucia, located in the eastern Caribbean and most commonly known for the iconic Pitons (part of a UNESCO World Heritage site), is one of the Caribbean’s most mountainous and diverse islands. This 238-square-mile island has turquoise blue waters of the Caribbean Sea to the west, rugged coastline along the Atlantic Ocean to the east, and beautiful rain forests, banana plantations, and volcanic beaches in between. Given its unique topography, St. Lucia lends itself to hiking and zip lining as well as the more traditional island activities such as snorkeling, scuba diving, and sailing.

During a recent scouting trip to this adventure-filled island, we had the opportunity to tour some of St. Lucia’s most luxurious resorts.
