I was going to book a St Lucia holiday in Summer for the family, but we decided to wait and book one for Christmas. I just managed to grab a fantastic holiday to St Lucia at the last minute, and we went to St Lucia last year. The reason I haven’t spoken about since then is because I have been so busy. So seeing as I am booking a holiday back to St Lucia, and i have some free time, I thought I would explain my last holiday there to you.
As we landed at St Lucia International Airport, we got a taxi and headed straight to our hotel. The Hotel that I had booked us into was called the Le sport. After we had settled in, we spent most of our time on the beach or wondering around the forests in St Lucia (yes there are forests).
I had heard that there was a Volcano on St Lucia, yet i never new that we could visit it, let alone drive into it. Now I have seen a volcano before, in Greece, but never one like this. Ever heard of driving through a volcano, well here is where you can do it, the St Lucia Sulphur Springs. This Volcano is Dormant, and produces a very strong smell of sulphur; apparently if the smell disappears then the Volcano is getting ready to erupt!
In a Volcano you know it is hot, but when you see land and soil boiling in the earth, it makes you realise. After a tour guide fell into one of these boiling puddles, walking through the Volcano was called off and people were no longer allowed to go through on foot. So now you may only drive through it on the designated path. There were some truly amazing colours layered all the way around the Volcano, and the smell of Sulphur was extremely strong. Driving through a Volcano is an amazing experience, so if you get the chance, take it up. So I am definitely going back there to visit the Volcano again.
For St Lucia holidays, Barbados holidays and Christmas holidays, you should consider contacting a tour operator immediately.
