St. Lucia is a very lush and tropical island in the Eastern Caribbean. England and France fought for nearly two hundred years over beautiful St. Lucia. This dazzling Caribbean wonderland is a fountain of natural treasures – the fiery passions of an ancient volcano, the richness of a national rainforest, and the soothing waters of the glistening bay and sea.
The island of St. Lucia has two airports. The larger Hewanorra International Airport (UVF) is approximately 90 – 120 minutes drive from the capital Castries and Rodney Bay. The smaller George F. Charles Airport (SLU) is approximately 15 minutes drive to the Rodney Bay area. Van transfer costs are reasonable and readily available. Car rentals are also available, however it is wonderful to recieve an island overview from the local transfer drivers.
All large jets arrive at the larger Hewanorra International Airport with American Eagle and LIAT arriving at the smaller airport in Castries.

Peter Island Resort, Villas and Spa is getting greener. This was a pleasant surprise on my visit last week to see two wind turbines spinning away and generating electricity for the resort. Andres the Villa Manager who was our tour guide shared that approximately 25% - 50% of the resort’s power needs are supplied by the wind turbines. There is no other resort in the British Virgin Islands doing this. Also P Peter Island is recycling which is also outstanding. [Read more...]
