St. Lucia is an island of startling
contrasts where nature's powerful forces left precious gifts
behind. Get lost in more than 19,000 acres of rainforests
teeming with sweet aromatic flowers, exotic sounds from
colorful parrots and other rare species. Bananas, coconuts
and papaya thrive as far as the eye can see. A ridge of
richly adorned mountains stretches almost the length of the
island rising 3,145 feet than plunging 140 feet below the
seashore on the southern coast where eccentric sea-life,
coral pinnacles and spectacular sponges invite the curious
to explore.

| The
beauty of Les Pitons where Superman picked an immortal
flower for Lois Lane in Superman II, wows every visitor.
Visit the world's only drive-in volcano and linger is the
nearby fishing village of Soufriere. All this and more
creates a dramatic backdrop to magnificent unspoiled beaches
and secluded coves by teal blue Caribbean waters. Dock at
Rodney Bay, a popular stop-off for the yachting crowd. And
Marigot Bay, locale for the enchanting movie Dr. Doolittle.
Reduit Beach is one of the island's many retreats where
doing nothing at all is protocol. |

On
the picturesque northern coastline is the village of Gros
Islet which transforms every Friday night into a carnival
scene of Soca and Reggae music. Nearby is Castries, the
island's capital with its bustling market where a 400-year
old tree has shaded a beautiful cathedral since 1897. Just
offshore is Pigeon Island, a living museum tracing the 200
years France and Britain battled for control of this
paradise, leaving a delightful mixture of influences today.
Freshly caught seafood and local cuisine are served with a
French flair. |

|
| Take
in the island from every perspective. The scenic cruise
along the inspiring coast between Castries and Soufriere is
a must. Get a bird's eye view from a helicopter. To reach
out and touch it, hike it. Ride through it on horseback. For
a leisure look, drive it and stop for lunch. And by all
means, dive it. Explore reefs and wrecks, walls and volcanic
ridges. Shore dives, boat dives and night dives. Golf on two
courses. Catch barracuda, mackerel and kingfish. Or hop on a
ferry to the French island of Martinique for a day, so near
it's visible on the horizon. |

To do
everything your heart desires, you'll need more than 7 days.
So go ahead and stretch "The Greatest Week of Your
Life." You'll never want to leave, but when you do,
you'll return home with a whole new outlook on life.
