Castries is the capital city of St Lucia and is placed at a flood plain and is in fact on a

domestic land. It is the home to governments and head offices of both far

ferry boats with cruise ships. Castries has lots of shopping places like La Place

Carinage and Point Seraphine. All these restaurants give lots of good food from

regional to International. There are quite a few supermarkets and other shopping

areas making it the paradise for shopaholics. Castries is well-connected

with the other surrounding areas by a bus system and taxi service. One of the Facts

about Castries is that the transportation is definitely wonderful.

Soufriere is a town that has lovely scenery and is placed on the southwest coast of the Caribbean island of St Lucia. The

oldest place on St. Lucia, it was a important trading centre under the French.

At its prime in the late 18th century, as many as 100 sugar and coffee plantations came in the time. It has a very shallow bay that is very, very, very popular for fishing.

Roseau

Roseau is a place where lots of banana trees grow and other crops, but banana trees are really popular. Because there are so many banana trees, there are many small shacks where bananas are sold to make money.

It is between Anse La Raye and Marigot Bay.

The most visited and the most pictured landmarks in St Lucia are, without doubt, the Pitons. The gigantic twin Volcanoes of
