UK Clients Call 0-800-917-4619 The original island inhabitants were peaceful Arawak Indians who were later subdued by the warlike Caribs who gave the island many place names including Hewannora meaning "where the Iguana is found." Although there is tradition that Columbus discovered the island on one of his new world voyages, the best evidence suggests that he did not. St. Lucia is located in the Southeastern Caribbean approximately 1,300 miles from Florida. It is part of the Windward Islands which in turn are part of the lesser Antilles which are part of the West Indies. This 238 square mile island is presently populated by about 150,000 people. The island is volcanic in origin. The majestic Pitons are visual evidence of this as are the sulfur springs. Soufrière, the city at the base of the Pitons, means sulfur. Beaches in the southwest, mountainous part of the island (such as Anse Chastanet) are black sand owing to the presence of lava rock. The rain forest is also located here in the mountainous region. The jungle foliage is lush and colorful. The northern part of the island is hilly rather than mountainous, and the beaches are more typically white sand. The colorful flowering foliage is still present, however. Our favorite spots tend to be on the north end of the island and along the Caribbean coast down to the Pitons. Pigeon island and the long beach that is on the causeway connecting the island to the mainland is one of our favorite spots. The hilltop on the island contains the remnants of Admiral Rodney's fort, and the long beach will be very private. The causeway road is just past Gros Islet the home of the Friday jumpup. This has become an institution with many of the villagers becoming street side vendors selling barbecued meats, rum punch, and other drinks. Reggae music will blare from a huge speaker system set up in the middle of the village. There will be dancing in the streets. The party really just gets going about midnight and will continue till dawn.

   Extractions: Geography Caribbean Islands Table of Contents St. Lucia is one of many small land masses composing the insular group known as the Windward Islands (see fig. , Caribbean Regional Map). Unlike large limestone areas such as Florida, Cuba, and the Yucatan Peninsula, or the Bahamas, which is a small island group composed of coral and sand, St. Lucia is a typical Windward Island formation of volcanic rock that came into existence long after much of the region had already been formed. St. Lucia's physical features are strikingly beautiful. Dominated by high peaks and rain forests in the interior, the 616- square-kilometer island is known for the twin peaks of Gros Piton and Petit Piton on the southwestern coast, its soft sandy beaches, and its magnificent natural harbors (see fig. , Map of St. Lucia). Mount Gimie, the highest peak, is located in the central mountain range and rises to 958 meters above sea level, a contrast that is also evident in the abrupt climatic transition from coastal to inland areas. The steep terrain also accentuates the many rivers that flow from central St. Lucia to the Caribbean. Fertile land holdings, which support banana farming, are scattered throughout the island. St. Lucia has a tropical, humid climate moderated by northeast trade winds that allow for pleasant year-round conditions. Mean annual temperatures range from 26o C to 32o C at sea level and drop to an average of 13o C in the mountain peaks. The abundant annual rainfall accumulates to approximately 200 centimeters, with most precipitation occurring during the June to December wet season. Hurricanes are the most severe climatic disturbance in this area and have been known to cause extensive damage. Although St. Lucia has historically been spared from serious hurricane destruction, Hurricane Allen decimated the agricultural sector and claimed nine lives in 1980.
