Advantages: Hot, All inclusive
Disadvantages: .
Ive now been to the caribbean 6 times. 5 of the were st lucia and 1 was the Dominican Republic. As far as im concerned St Lucia is the best island in the caribbean. Its hot, its humid, its paradise! I stayed at Club St Lucia, its situated on the top west coast of the island. There are 4 pools, a raquet club, many bars, a few restuarants and daytime activities. Room are actually small houses, there are hunderds of blocks of 4, dotted arround the place amougst the lush green grass and bananna trees. The people in St Lucia are the most friendly people in the world. You end up sitting is some rasta bar talking to these people for ages. There no dodgy stuff like everyone makes out and it just fantastic. There are many trips you can go on such as sulphur springs visits, drive in volcano, horse riding etc. The hotel is an all inclusive meaning all food and drink is free. And let me tell you, you ask a bartender in england to make a drink that will knock you out...they cant do it, you ask a bartender is St Lucia surrounded by every single drink possible to make you one that will knock you out...they can, and it wont only knock you out, it will keep you dead for days. The night entertainment is also excellent, they have shows which involve the audience and make it fun. Parents can be worry free about there kid because the resort is so safe they can stay out all night. The resort is massive and with no shortage or drink or activity you can go for weeks and not be bored. St Lucia is a 7-9 hour flight from the UK. When you land in St Lucia you catch a free taxi up to the top of the island. This ride take about 1 and half hours, but its great. You drive though greenary, up and down twisty raods until you get there. When youve covered everything on land (which you wont unless youve gone there for 5 months) you can resort to the water. You can cathc speedboats everywhere (my favourite being a boat called hurricane, it has X2 22
5 h/p engine and travels very quick while skipping the wave beautifully. Definaltly worth goin on...also a quicker way to travel round the island. You can go dolphine/shark/whale watching and you wont be disappointed, because you always see something. The waters are really clear and the beaches are white (with exception because of volcanic ash) this make it the perfect island for scuba diving at. The scuba diving is fantasic on your own or with instructors, you see millions of fish and can feed them bananna (as this is what they eat). With the occasional sting ray, shark and baracuda swimming past you, you go deaper. Its trually beatiful. Also because of the clear waters and hot weather deep sea fishing is a great thing to do, catching baracudas, tuna but most of all blue marlin...The king of fish. WOW! St Lucia really is a place to go if you want to see lush green plants, exotic animals and beautiful views (especially the sunsets). Activities include: swimming football tennis tabletennis snorkeling kayaking jet skiing water skiing scuba diving geep safari drive in volcano sulphur springs daytime activitie general socialising with endless amount of drink eating sleeping sun bathing boat rides dolphin wathing whale watching fishing horse riding squash wedding wake boaridng yaghting pedelos glass bottom boat trips exotic dancing rainforset trips It really is 100% worth your money.
