St Lucia is the only island in the Caribbean named after a goddess  and the native people worship the whole mountain formation as the goddess of romance. The whole mountain structure with two piton mountain(breast) believed to be the outcome of Vulcanic eruption and the whole formation looks like the body of a woman with head is submerged in the ocean.

Truly the view of piton emerged from the ocean bed is indescribable in words. One can feel the euphoria in the atmosphere.  It feels like a piece of heaven descended here. In addition to its serenity the Jade mountain does the justice of creating the resorts where one can be one with the nature.

in this beautiful Caribbean island with plenty to offer! Here are some of the best things to do:

1. Visit the Pitons: Hike the Gros Piton for stunning views, or relax at the base and take in the scenery.

Rising majestically from the sea and adorned with lush emerald vegetation, the iconic volcanic plugs of St. Lucia, Gros Piton and Petit Piton, are a must-see. Located between the towns of Soufrière and Choiseul, these twin peaks are easily visible from various points in the southwest.

Visitors often rave about the stunning beauty of these peaks, whether enjoying the view or hiking the trails. Those who hiked Gros Piton described the experience as unforgettable, with breathtaking vistas at the summit. While both peaks are climbable, locals advise against tackling Petit Piton unless you’re an experienced climber, as its trail is exceptionally steep. Many choose to hike Gros Piton instead; even those in good shape may find the uneven terrain challenging, but the sense of achievement at the top makes it worthwhile. Don’t forget, the Caribbean heat can be intense, so it’s essential to bring enough water—guides recommend at least 1.5 liters. Plan for about four to five hours to complete the hike.

If you’re not keen on a strenuous trek, consider taking a boat tour for fantastic views of the Pitons. Some visitors also enjoy snorkeling in the area, where vibrant marine life thrives.

While hiring a guide for the hike isn’t mandatory, it’s highly recommended. If you’re not staying in Soufrière, booking a day trip that includes transportation, a licensed guide, and entry fees can be the most convenient option. If you prefer to go independently, you’ll need to pay a $50 permit fee and will be assigned a local guide at the entrance.
