St. Lucia is a lush tropical island adorned with pristine sugar sand
beaches and exotic black sand beaches. More and more vacationers are drawn to this little Caribbean
hideaway, whose charm lies in its friendly atmosphere and its stunning seaside scenery.
All of the beaches on St. Lucia are public. A number of beachfront hotels and resorts are
located on the north shores of the island. No matter where you're staying on the northern portion
of the island, which tapers to a point, you'll be close to fine diving. However, those staying on
the northeastern side will experience harsher waves coming from the Atlantic, and will need to
cross to the northwest for diving opportunities at the beaches.
The secluded stretches of white sand beaches on the west coast near the southern portion of
Marigot Bay can only be reached by watercraft and are popular https://samoletplus.ru/msk/ for tourists in charter boats,
catamarans, and powerboats. However, the beach itself is known for its calm waters and beautiful
scenery both on-land and odd. This quiet side of the island is facing the Caribbean rather than the
Atlantic.
The beaches along St. Lucia's east coast, or windward side, face the Atlantic Ocean. The choppy
waves of the Atlantic here aren't suitable for swimming, but are great for gazing at spectacular
ocean views. However, this side of the island is less densely populated, and travelers will often
have a bit more space to themselves. Therefore, those who want to simply sunbathe may find just
what they're looking for on this side of the island, where the beaches are quieter than the waters.
St. Lucia has plenty of beautiful beaches, including its uniquely stunning black sand
beaches. The island's volcanic past has given it a touch of something different with the black,
volcanic sands that line its shores, sometimes combining with the white sand, like at Anse Couchon,
in strand and wave patterns.
Sun-worshiping vacationers will discover that this Caribbean vacation spot is a little piece
of heaven on earth. And those looking for a bit of adventure will have plenty to enjoy outside of
these sands as well. Those interested in learning a bit more about specific beaches on St. Lucia
