	St Lucia vacations — holidays in St Lucia and the Caribbean

		Now St Lucia, its lush peaks shooting up from the sea in between St Vincent and Martinique, attracts sun-seekers — many of them honeymooners, who find that the natural and unspoiled island more than lives up to all of their Caribbean dreams.
		At 238 square miles (616 sq km), St Lucia is large enough to provide visitors with breathtaking contrasts and small enough to ensure that tourists who want to laze their days away in peace and quiet can do just that.
