3 Days in St Lucia: Suggested Itineraries
Filled with greenery, St. Lucia is fast becoming a rather fashionable package tour destination in the Caribbean. Yet the island is far from being overpopulated or thronged by tourists, making it an ideal getaway for those who want to enjoy the less touristy side of the Caribbean. The best time to visit is between February to April when the weather is pleasant and the rains have eased off. Here is a suggested itinerary for a three day St. Lucia vacation.

Day 1: Beaches and Cruises

Like any other Caribbean island, St. Lucia is surrounded by beautiful white sand beaches, turquoise blue waters and long deep harbors. While the beaches are perfect spots to spend a lazy day acquiring a sun tan, most tourists prefer sailing away on a catamaran cruise. The St. Lucia Catamaran Day Sail takes you along the tropical west coast while the St. Lucia Champagne Sunset Cruise is a perfect opportunity to sail into the sunset while you converse over a glass of bubbly.

Day 2: Nature Walks and Tours

One of the Caribbean’s greener islands, St. Lucia offers ample opportunities for nature lovers to experience its tropical rainforests. The St. Lucia Aerial Tram and Zipline Canopy Tour and the Rainforest Canopy Adventure both offer spectacular views of the island from up in the air. Alternatively, for those who prefer to keep both feet on the ground, the Gros Piton Nature Trail or the St. Lucia Rainforest Walk takes you right into the heart of rainforest and is ideal for hiking enthusiasts.

Day 3: Land and Sea Adventures

Start your third day off with a Land and Sea Adventure to Soufriere, St Lucia which allows you to explore the island’s unparalleled beauty from both land and sea. Visit Morne Fortune with its many banana plantations and fishing villages before venturing on to Soufriere, Sulphur Springs, Diamond Waterfalls and Botanical Gardens.

Doing what: St Lucia Shore Excursion: Soufriere Island Delight

As in many of our Viator tours, the group had only four travelers. Our guide showed the many different aspects of the island. The most informative part of the tour was the visit to a banana plantation where we learned how the fruit was nurtured from sprout to packing for their trip to England. We experienced the sights, sounds and smells of the beaches, mountains, volcanoes, gardens, waterfalls, and Pitons of this lovely and friendly island. Although we had some delicious island bread, We felt the tour could have been extended 45 minutes to include a time to grab a snack or lunch. S and C

Doing what: Land and Sea Adventure to Soufriere, St Lucia

Was a lot of fun! Knowledgable tour guides that wanted to make sure you had a great time. Lunch provided was delicious and scenic at "The Still" restaurant. Only recommendation would be to minimize the number of people on the catamaran sea portion. It was quite crowded with multiple tour groups.
