Officially established in 1746, Soufriere is the oldest town in St Lucia and was the island's capital under French rule. Naturally framed by hills and dominated by the looming, conical Pitons - twin volcanic peaks thrusting straight out of the sea to the south of the town - Soufriere's deep bay is extremely picturesque, particularly when viewed from the hilly coastal roads as you enter town from the north or south. This unspoiled allure has often drawn the attention of film producers: scenes from Superman II, Water , and the more recent White Squall were shot in and around town.
Taxis and buses heading north to Castries and south to Vieux Fort and for the east
coast cluster around the town square and the waterfront; the latter is also the place to hop aboard convenient water taxis , which traverse the area servicing all of the nearby bays, many of which are difficult to access from the land without your own car. Water taxis (tel 758/454-5420) also offer sightseeing trips to Castries and back. At US$350 for four, the trips are expensively exotic. One-way trips (no sightseeing) for four or more people cost around US$90-100 for four.

Gros Islet and the north St Lucia Travel Videos St Lucia Travel Itinerary St Lucia's compact northern tip encompasses the "Golden Mile" of coastal resort towns as well as the remote and arid northern shoreline between Pointe du Cap and Pointe Hardy, and quiet Cas-en-Bas on the rugged northeast coast. - St Lucia
Castries St Lucia Travel Videos St Lucia Travel Itinerary Home to some 60,000 people (more than a third of the island's total population), St Lucia's capital of CASTRIES , on the northwest coast, is a metaphor for contemporary West Indian urban culture: at times busy and congested, at times somnolent and peaceful, the town feels somewhat stuck between a centuries-old West Indian lifestyle and a desperate push to modernize. - St Lucia
East coast St Lucia Travel Videos St Lucia Travel Itinerary Churned up by the Caribbean trade winds, the pounding waters of the Atlantic have carved out a rough and jagged east coast on St Lucia, one that's mainly ignored by visitors - to their loss. - St Lucia
South coast St Lucia Travel Videos St Lucia Travel Itinerary St Lucia's southern coast boasts some striking scenery: south of Soufriere, the thin mountain road whirls and dips inland before swinging toward the ocean to reveal a string of coastal villages and, ultimately, the island's second largest town, Vieux Fort , all framed by the towering ranges of the Central Forest Reserve. - St Lucia
