What to see in Castries

Castries, the vibrant capital of Saint Lucia in the Caribbean, captivates visitors with its colourful markets, historic landmarks and stunning coastal scenery. This bustling hub exudes Caribbean charm, offering a delightful blend of culture, commerce and natural beauty that promises an unforgettable island experience.

Begin your journey in Castries by delving into its lively markets and historic landmarks, which offer insights into the island's rich heritage and vibrant culture. Head to the bustling Castries Market, a colourful hub of activity where vendors sell fresh produce, spices, handicrafts and souvenirs. Stroll through the maze of stalls, chat with the friendly vendors and sample exotic fruits, spices and local delicacies. From the market, make your way to the historic heart of Castries, where you'll find a treasure trove of colonial-era landmarks and architectural gems. Visit the majestic Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, a stunning example of French Gothic architecture that dates back to the 19th century. Admire its soaring spires, intricate stained glass windows and ornate interior, and learn about its significance as the seat of the Roman Catholic Church in Saint Lucia.

Castries is surrounded by some of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean, offering plenty of opportunities for relaxation and water-based activities. Spend a day soaking up the sun on the soft sands of Vigie Beach, located just a short drive from the city centre. Swim in the calm turquoise waters, lounge under the shade of a palm tree or try your hand at water sports such as snorkelling, kayaking or paddleboarding. For a more secluded beach experience, venture further afield to Marigot Bay, a picturesque cove surrounded by lush green hillsides and swaying coconut palms. Relax on the sandy shores, take a dip in the crystal-clear waters or enjoy a scenic boat ride around the bay. Don't miss the chance to explore the nearby Marigot Bay Marina Village, where you'll find a variety of shops, restaurants and waterfront cafes.

No cruise to Castries would be complete without sampling the island's delicious cuisine and experiencing its vibrant culinary scene. Head to the iconic Coal Pot Restaurant, located on the waterfront overlooking Vigie Beach, and indulge in fresh seafood, grilled meats and traditional Caribbean dishes. Savour the flavours of Saint Lucian cuisine, such as callaloo soup, green fig and saltfish, and grilled lobster, paired with a refreshing rum cocktail or a cold beer. For a taste of local flavour, visit the Friday Night Fish Fry in the nearby village of Anse La Raye, where you can sample freshly caught fish and seafood cooked over open fires and served with traditional side dishes and condiments. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of the fish fry, with live music, dancing and friendly locals eager to share their culture and cuisine with visitors.
