a family getaway? St. Lucia is the ideal family vacation destination where everyone
can have a time of their life. St. Lucia provides rest, relaxation and rejuvenation
for the adults; and lots of outdoor fun and excitement for the kids. Several
hotels on island welcome families and offer special facilities including kids
clubs, special kids meals, and comforting sleeping arrangements – beds and cots
in room or adjoining rooms. Family vacations can include a variety of land sports
and water sports. Take a tour that the whole family will enjoy; for example, the
Rain Forest or a biking tour. Marigot
Bay A lovely, sequestered, natural harbor that once provided a hideout for pirate
ships, Marigot Bay also served as the setting for the film Dr. Doolittle. Maria
Islands Nature Reserve These tiny islands in southern Saint Lucia to the east
of Vieux Fort are home to rare wildlife and birds. Several species exist nowhere
else in the world. Pigeon Island
Museum and Interpretive Centre This museum is housed in the former British officers'
mess building, which has been restored to its 1808 plans. A modern "hands-on"
display brings Pigeon Island's fascinating history to life. Whale & Turtle watching
St Lucia is recognised as one of the leading whale watching sites in the area.
Over 20 species are regularly spotted throughout the year, including humpbacks,
pilot whales, sperm whales and spinning and spotted dolphins. Turtles
are another fascinating thrill for nature-lovers. The abundance of these majestic
reptiles on St Lucia is due to the protection provided by local environmental
activists, who have ensured there is a permanent suspension on turtle hunting.
