Anyone been to St. Lucia? We are going in January, staying at the
Sandals Regency. Any info about fun things to see and do would be great.

St. Lucia is a very beautiful island. I would recommend bathing in
the Sulphur Springs (its supposed to be wonderful for your skin) with
the locals and going on the rainforest hikes :-) They also have fish
fries every weekend (go to the one in Anse LeRaye on Friday)..

People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did, but
people will never forget how you made them feel.

We are staying at Sandals Halcyon in December. It will be a return trip
for us. Check out all 3 Sandals. We loved La Toc at the Regency. Also
loved the Pier and Mario's at Halcyon. Sandals provides a free frequent
shuttle among the 3 resorts so you can check them all out. Take the
land/sea catamarran trip to Soufriere. You may be getting it for free
if you booked a Premium or higher room. Sandals is a blast, IMHO. Any
questions? St Lucia is beautiful. Sandals is great. You will have a
wonderful time!

We have stopped there several times on cruises. Even took a cat right past
the resort. Loved the botanical gardens and the drive thru volcano.
Have a great time!

I was in St. Lucia a couple of years ago on a 7 day cruise. It was the
most beautiful stop of the week. We didnt have a whole lot of time to
explore since time is limited on a cruise. We went a did a mountain
biking excursion in the jungle. It was really nice but would love to see
more. Want to go see the Pitons, they are magnificent looking. I am
going back in January on another cruise so I hope to see more then. If I
had to pick a place in the Caribbean to go for a week St. Lucia would be
one of them.

My wife and I got married in St. Lucia last year. I agree that this is
a beautiful island. If you really want to see it, ditch the cruise, buy
some plane tickets and spend a week. We started our trip in Rodney Bay;
nice but not great beach, good restaurants,. Then to East Winds Inn
south of Castries; all-inclusive, nice, small, and secluded beach,
close to town for shopping but still with an "isolated" feel. Got
married in Marigot Bay; most gorgeous location on the island, stayed
one night up on the hills surrounding the bay. Finally spent a couple
nights at Ti Kaye Village further south; fantastic lodging, very nice
secluded beach and a nice day trip to Souffriere to see the Pitons,
botanical gardens and the "drive-through" volcanoe.

The people are very friendly, the guides and taxi drivers knowledgeable
and most everyone speaks English. The only down-side is that the
poverty there and most Caribbean islands is heart-breaking. I strongly
recommend St. Lucia as a wedding, vacation, or any other kind of
destination.

Jerry

P.S. We are spending out first anniversary in Barbados, so we'll have a
chance to compare.
