St Lucia And Her Pitons Charm Us.
This is a top pick!
St. Lucia - what a gem of a Caribbean Island.
From the first glimpse from our cruise ship window she had us in love with her beauty. Ports for cruise ships are generally the ugly side of town, but Castries was the exception being a pretty little inlet with sail boat moorings in our view and surrounding lush tropical hillsides with colourful houses poking out of the slopes.

Today we decided that we would walk into the capitol city of St. Lucia, Castries. We docked on the edge of town with only a short walk into town just around the harbor.
