Why St Lucia?
"St Lucia is incredible"
We chose to go to Saint Lucia back in
October 2010. Saint Lucia is a stunning island situated in the Caribbean Sea,
in the West Indies. St Lucia is connected to the Atlantic Ocean and is part of
Lesser Antilles, north/northeast of the island of Saint Vincent and northwest
of Barbados and the south of Martinique. St Lucia is also known by the name of
"Helen of the West Indies".
Fun Fact - Although they have thousands of visitors every year, very few actually know much about this beautiful Island.
This particular holiday was a special one though as my dad and step mum had
decided to use it for their wedding destination. They chose this location
because of the stunning warm sandy beaches and the nice weather along with the
thought that it would be nice to get married next to the beach. They were provided
a buggy to take her and the bridesmaid to the venue where her son gave her
away, on a stunning part of the island, with a beautiful view behind us, they
then got photos taken standing down on the beach. We had never been to Saint
Lucia before so after doing some research they thought this would be the
perfect place and a new experience. St Lucia has two tapered mountains, the
Pitons and also volcanic beaches, reef-diving sites, luxury resorts, fishing
villages, waterfalls, rainforests and a cliff garden looking over their
Capital, Castries which is a well-known cruise port which is a popular tourist
attraction.
It is how I would describe heaven and I am not surprised that my dad and step
mum chose this amazing destination as the perfect place to get married, none of
us wanted to leave.
