I was going to book a St Lucia holiday in Summer for the family, but we decided to wait and book one for Christmas. So now i have just booked myself a great St Lucia holiday, after the one i went on last year, i decided to go back again. If i hadn’t had so much to do when i came back from my holiday, i would have written about this sooner. 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.

We landed at an airport called the Hewanorra airport, a very modern and classy airport. The Hotel that I had booked us into was called the Le sport. St Lucia has a lovely forest that covers most of the island, and we went on two safaris through the jungle, other than that we spent a lot of our time at the beach.

Now although I knew that there was a Volcano on the island, I had never really thought that we could go and see it. The Last time i went to a Volcano was in Greece, near the island of Kos. The St Lucia Sulphur Springs is the only Drive in Volcano in the world. This Volcano is Dormant, so there is nothing for you to worry about, just that if the smell of sulphur fades, this means the Volcano is preparing to Erupt!

There are points in the Crater where the water and mud is boiling. 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. If the opportunity should ever arise, then should definitely try this. 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.
