Saint Lucia is your first stopover after just a few hours' sailing along the canal separating it from Martinique. You will arrive at an island where English is to be heard all around you, but with a strong Caribbean accent. As well as the famous Saint Lucian smiles, you will be warmly welcomed by "Hey! My friend! Welcome to the West Indies!" You will also hear the softer tones of the local dialect, which sounds a lot like the creole of the French Caribbean.

In Saint Lucia the idea of Mother Nature takes on a new meaning. Apart from all the clichés about tropical islands and white sandy beaches, Saint Lucia is a volcanic island and overflowing with hidden secrets!

The Friday Nights and other festivities will plunge you into the heart of the local culture.
