Grand Anse, Saint Lucia

One of the Caribbean’s undoubted jewels, Saint Lucia has long been one of the world’s top luxury travel destinations. And in Grande Anse, this stunning island can also boast a little piece of paradise on earth. Despite its popularity – particularly with honeymooners – Saint Lucia remains remarkably unspoilt, demonstrated by the ban on development that protects the nature reserve surrounding Grande Anse and its incredible beaches and terrain. The seclusion of Grande Anse Saint Lucia is reflected elsewhere on the island – there are few places in the world with more quiet, undisturbed places to stay, and fewer still with as many luxurious and sumptuous hotels and resorts, in which to kick back and relax far from the madding crowds. One of the Windward Islands, Saint Lucia is in the eastern Caribbean, with Grenada to the south, and Antigua and Barbados to the north. Unlike many of its neighbouring Caribbean destinations, it has managed to resist the sprawl of mass tourist development, and so retains its colonial charm and natural habitats, such as those protected at Grande Anse Saint Lucia.

An Explosive Past, An Idyllic Present

Saint Lucia is a volcanic island, and its explosive past is very much evident in the startling landscape. Towering peaks covered in lush vegetation and a rocky coastline are epitomised in Grande Anse. The harbour of the capital, Castries, is on the site of an extinct volcano, and the island is amazingly home to the world’s only drive-in volcanic crater at Mount Soufriere on the south coast. Colonised by both the British and the French – Saint Lucia changed hands some 14 times between those two nations over two centuries – Saint Lucia today retains many elements of its colonial past. English is the official language, but French patois is the language of the street. And, while much of its architecture has been destroyed in the hurricanes that occasionally batter its shores, there are still some exceptional examples of the buildings erected by the sugar cane barons in its early days. Today what draws visitors to Saint Lucia is its stunning scenery, sun kissed beaches and crystal clear blue waters, such as those at Grande Anse – and, of course, its outstanding selection of luxury hotels and resorts. The northeast coast on which Grande Anse is situated retains its natural beauty, thanks to its status as a nature reserve, with the Atlantic Ocean fringing its coastline. The northwest coast is the more developed and busier with its sandy beaches lapped by the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea and some marvellous accommodation. Those seeking a holiday that offers the last word in luxury, in sumptuous facilities and in extraordinary relaxation – many hotels have spa facilities – will be wowed by facilities in Grande Anse Saint Lucia.

An Adventure Awaits

While travellers may be loath to tear themselves away from the solitude and exclusive privacy of their hotel or resort, Saint Lucia has some quite stunning scenery and attractions to explore. Grande Anse Saint Lucia is one such attraction. The north east coast of the island is the least accessible part of Saint Lucia, but it’s remoteness, allied to its raw beauty, make the beaches here one of the must-see attractions on any holiday here. The rocky coastline and sandy coves can be reached on foot, although it is a challenging walk along a single-track road. The most popular way to arrive on the beaches of Grande Anse, including Petite Anse and Anse Louvet is by 4×4 – you can arrange your own vehicle rental or participate in one of the many organised tours run by local operators and indeed by many hotels, and enjoy the ride along this remote part of the island. Grande Anse Saint Lucia, provides the nesting grounds for endangered sea turtles and, during April and May, it is possible to watch these magnificent creatures in their ancient nesting rituals on the beaches. Whether it is the lush tropical rainforest that blankets the central region of the island, nature in the raw at Grande Anse Saint Lucia, or the appeal of elegant and grand hotels that promise and deliver the ultimate in opulent accommodation, Saint Lucia ticks every box on the wish list of every traveller.

Located within a 19th century British mess building, it documents the activities of the first Carib Indian settlers and the island’s history through the battle for French and English control of Saint Lucia.

History of Pigeon Island Saint Lucia

The human history of Pigeon Island began with the Arawak people, a group of people now unknown in the Antilles and found only in South America. Arawak peoples were known to grow crops, with cassava a staple. About 1000 AD the Caribs arrived on Pigeon Island and drove out the Arawaks by war and extermination. The Caribs are believed to have arrived in the Caribbean region from the Orinoco River region in South America. They were skilled at boat building and expert sailors, as well as excelling in warfare. They were also traders and producers of silver. On Pigeon Island, the Caribs made their homes in caves on the islet, hunted for fish, animals and birds and gathered plants. The Caribs remained on Pigeon Island until 1778 when Admiral George Rodney drove them out. Admiral Rodney built the fort for which he is named and cut down all trees on the island. Further structures including barracks and a mess hall were added later.

While having loved ones around is essential, so too is the location, and that’s why more couples than ever are choosing magnificent destinations such as Saint Lucia in which to tie the knot. There are few more beautiful places in the world to say “I do” than in the lush tropical paradise of Saint Lucia. This perfect Caribbean destination boasts some of the most stunning locations in the world, in which to get married.

Saint Lucia has a world-renowned reputation for its abundance of luxury hotels and resorts, many of which are well-versed in organising weddings, and indeed can offer a coordinator who will leave nothing to chance.

Location, location, location

There are many reasons to choose Saint Lucia for a tropical wedding, not least the magnificent weather. The main reason for choosing to marry on a gorgeous Caribbean island is to have an outdoor wedding – the wedding party will enjoy endless sunshine and warm Caribbean evenings, in which to soak up the party atmosphere and relax. Location is naturally the key, and that’s why a botanical garden wedding will surely provide one of the most distinctive and memorable of venues for the bride and groom. The Diamond Botanical Garden, near Soufrière on the island’s southwest coast, is one of Saint Lucia’s best wedding venues, and even has a wedding gazebo in which to host ceremonies. This six-acre site was built for the troops of King Louis XVI in 1784, at a time when France had wrested control of Saint Lucia from Britain. The two European nations vied one and other to rule this incredible island which is rich in natural resources and stunningly beautiful. Britain finally won the battle for control, before Saint Lucia gained independence in 1979. Today, visitors can enjoy the therapeutic waters of the mineral baths, lazing in the pools so that tired and aching muscles are restored to full health. It might not be the most conventional preparation for pledging your life to the one you love, but soaking in hot springs, then walking under a spectacular waterfall before a botanical garden wedding, will certainly provide some terrific talking points and memories when you and your guests get back home.

The start of wedded bliss

Once you’ve decided that a botanical garden wedding is perfect for you and your partner, you need to ensure that every element of organising such an individual and attractive venue is taken care of. Tailored wedding packages for Saint Lucia are available, which will take the strain out of organising the event. A package will provide you with your own planner or consultant who will take charge of the essential details, such as booking the venue for your botanical garden wedding, organising the registrar and photographer; and also sorting out flowers, a cake and post-ceremony drinks where asked for. The planner will also inform you of any fees to be paid that are not included in the package. But, of course, you will want to tailor your package to suit you and your partner, and your planner will be happy to tell you of any add-ons that will make your botanical garden wedding in Saint Lucia even more perfect.
