Things to do in Soufriere, St. Lucia
Relax on Sugar Beach: A white sand beach tucked in a valley between the pitons. It is in front of the Viceroy Hotel, but day trippers are welcome. Think pure white sand and warm crystal-clear water, surrounded by towering mountain peaks.
Walk the Tet Paul Nature Trail: An easy 45-minute hike on a well-marked trail with panoramic views.
Have a mud bath at Sulfur Springs: Relax in the warm water and cover yourself in the mud- the sulfur is said to have healing properties. It does smell a bit, but your skin will feel so soft afterwards! Remember to bring your own towel. Showers are available.
Venture to the world's only "drive in volcano" and see the bubbling mud pits and steam escaping from the vents.
For a quieter mineral bath experience, head to the New Jerusalem Mineral Baths.
Visit the Diamond Falls Botanical Gardens: Beautiful, lush gardens with tropical flowers galore! The Diamond Falls are beautiful and uniquely colored. There are also mineral baths available on site
Get out on the water and enjoy a different view of the Pitons on a boat tour.
Learn all about Cacao with a visit to the Project Chocolat: Tour the cacao groves, make your own chocolate bar, and enjoy lunch on site.
