St Lucia St Lucia is not much bigger than Barbados and manages to pack in a rainforest, a drive-in volcanic crater, gorgeous sandy white beaches and its famous twin peaks, the Pitons. There’s nothing unsophisticated about its main hotels but the island is a long way from being over-developed. It has a charming, warm culture that’s a mix of English and French Creole. St Lucia’s annual jazz festival (5 – 14 May in 2006) has open-air concerts in its National Park overlooking the sea - world class music with some of the best views in the Caribbean.
