Beaches, snorkeling and rainforest hikes - St. Lucia has it all
On a normal day, a yoga class with your gal pals may be the only thing standing between you and a 
Girlfriend Supporthomicidal wig-out on your boss. In St. Lucia, skip the yoga, meditation and IM chats and discover a whole new way to support each other.
Note to self: Leave Blackberry on the plane.
Diamond Botanical Gardens & Waterfall: Bushes and flowers in a wild assortment of colors line trails beneath towering trees. Follow the path to a natural gorge and waterfall and, beyond that, mineral baths where Josephine Bonaparte bathed as a young girl.
La Soufriere Drive-in Volcano: More than 20 belching pools of sulfur perfume the air - which is more overwhelming than tour companies usually admit. And while you can't actually peer over the edge of a crater, it's a fascinating way to spend a few hours.
The Pitons: The twin peaks covered in lush tropical vegetation symbolize St. Lucia. They're not identical - Petit Piton is actually taller than Gros Piton - and you can climb either with a guide.
Keyhole Pinnacles: Get out your snorkeling gear and don't forget your underwater camera. These 4 underwater sea mountains mimic the vibrant beauty of the Pitons. Colorful corals, vibrant sea sponges and fans decorate the thousand-foot peaks.
Beaches: Take your pick on St. Lucia - all beaches on the island are public. Our favorite is Reduit (pronounced red-wee) a long, luxurious stretch of white sand. If you feel the need to move your body, The Rex St. Lucian Hotel has a water-sports center.
Jump Ups: Join in the fun with islanders and tourists Friday nights in Gros Islet and Anse La Raye. Nosh on grilled chicken, down rum punch and dance in the streets all night long.
