Are you planning on taking a St Lucia cruise? Well you’re not alone. Every year thousands of tourists grace the shores of St Lucia with their presence.
At times you can find as many as four or five cruise ships in the Castries harbor on one day. The Castries harbor is getting more popular with the cruising industry as many people are realizing what St Lucia has to offer.
When you decide to take a cruise to St Lucia, you will find your self visiting other Caribbean countries. I personally believe that a Caribbean cruise is the best cruise anyone can take because of its’ scenic beauty, unique cultures, delicious foods and wonderful people, just to mention a few.
I am yet to meet or hear about one unsatisfied cruise visitor to St Lucia. In fact, many people choose a Caribbean cruise as their first choice when deciding on a cruising tour.
There are several reasons why you may ultimately choose a St Lucia cruise over other cruising destinations. St Lucia is truly a vacationer’s dream. It is filled with lush vegetation, waterfalls, gorgeous dive sites, lovely beaches ideal for relaxing. If you are adventurous, then you will find something for you here in St Lucia.
I live in St Lucia and would not trade that for the world. When ever I feel a little overwhelmed from the pressures of work, a short drive to the beach or a waterfall is all I need. Just seating on the shores and doing nothing helps me relax.
If a St Lucia cruise is next on your agenda, then here a few things you can expect when you go on your cruise to St Lucia.
• Catamaran Sailing • Visit Bagshaw studios for hand made silk prints • Duty free shopping • Whale watching • Taste local cuisine • Drive through the rain forest • Deep Sea Fishing • Tour the town of Soufriere • Visit Banana Plantations • Hike the (world heritage site twin peaks) Pitons, • bathe in sulfuric pools • Visit Pigeon Island and learn about its famous pirates and history • Tour botanical gardens and waterfalls • Visit the only drive-in volcano in the world
If you want to experience a true vacation, then my advice would be to take a St Lucia cruise. Not only will you see St Lucia, you will also get to see other Caribbean Islands as well.
Don’t regret spending your money on a vacation that does not offer much, Cruise the wonderful island of St Lucia, and find out what a true vacation is all about, after-all, St Lucia is “simply beautiful”.
