When we were in St. Lucia, we went on a day-long tour of this beautiful island country. We visited the mesmerizing Piton Mountains (a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site), drove through a volcano, watched local artisans creating intricate wood carvings, ate freshly picked bananas, and stopped at a scenic overlook near Marigot Bay. At just over 200 square miles, there’s more to see besides the beach!
Before we get to the pictures, here is a time lapse video of us cruising into St. Lucia:
