The Caribbean Islands offers true heavenly beauty. Thousands of travelers make their way to the destination to enjoy the clear blue waters and the sunny, sandy beaches that is the primary attraction of the place. While it is suitable for quiet family vacations, adventure travelers too can seek their share of thrills at the location. Marigot Bay on St Lucia Islands is the mecca for adventure tourists.
Why you need to head to St Lucia?
The Bay offers some of the most stunning and attractive landscapes in the Caribbean. Forested hills cover most of the bay region and are a natural shelter for ships at sea during stormy weather. However, the destination hides a variety of adventurous activities for people looking for that adrenaline rush.
If you manage to draw your eyes away from the breathtaking view of the bay, you will find several yachts parked in the marina. Activities you can participate in at this location include
Snorkeling, sailing and even stand-up paddle-boarding. You can also rent kayaking equipment if that is more to your liking. The best part is, almost anyone can engage in these activities without any prior experience. However, keep in mind that you should carry a waterproof bag from your St Lucia resort to keep all your clothes and belongings dry.
If you like the exercise, you can head up to the ridge overlooking the entire Marigot Bay. At the end of the 2-hour long hike, you will end up almost 1000 ft over the bay and come face to face with a stunning view of the surrounding island.
Other adventure activities in St Lucia
If you had your fill of Marigot, you can proceed to the other parts of the island to engage some more adventurous journeys.
Kite surfing
If you think normal surfing is boring, you should try out kite surfing off the shore of St Lucia Island. The clear blue water and the lovely weather conditions make this experience both fun and memorable. The windy nature of the region is perfect for kite-surfing. So just let go and let the wind take you wherever it wants.
Scuba diving
St Lucia houses a coral reef and a range of interesting marine life just off its coast. Additionally, scuba diving will allow you to come face to face with centuries-old shipwrecks underwater. This is one activity that you will surely enjoy if you love adventure. Scuba diving instructors train tourists before the dive to ensure complete safety, even for people who have never dived in their lives. Many popular St Lucia resorts have scuba diving coaches to allow guests the opportunity to witness life underwater.
Mountain biking
The lush green mountainous region of the island are perfect for mountain biking. Both beginners and advanced bikers can take on trails across the island. Make sure you wear the proper safety gear before riding a bike through these trails, as these routes can be similar to a roller coaster and accidents are common.
Thrill seekers should look no further and simply book their holiday in an all-inclusive hotel in St Lucia.
