The Original Official Site of the St. Lucia Tourist Board S t. Lucia is the sort of island that travellers to the Caribbean dream abouta small, lush tropical gem that is still relatively unknown. One of the Windward Islands of the Lesser Antilles, it is located midway down the Eastern Caribbean chain, between Martinique and St. Vincent, and north of Barbados. St. Lucia is only 27 miles long and 14 miles wide, with a shape that is said to resemble either a mango or an avocado (depending on your taste). The Atlantic Ocean kisses its eastern shore, while the beaches of the west coast owe their beauty to the calm Caribbean Sea. In natural beauty, St. Lucia seems like an island plucked from the South Pacific and set down in the Caribbean. Its dramatic twin coastal peaks, the Pitons, soar 2,000 feet up from the sea, sheltering magnificent rain forests where wild orchids, giant ferns, and birds of paradise flourish. Brilliantly-plumed tropical birds abound, including endangered species like the indigenous St. Lucia parrot. The rainforest is broken only by verdant fields and orchards of banana, coconut, mango, and papaya trees. St. Lucia has been inhabited since long before colonial times, and its

The local artists, less known, are very interesting too. Derek Walcott, Nobel Prize of Literature 1992 As everywhere in the Caribbean, the music is very important. Of course, the main influence on local music is the jamaïcan reggae, with very popular singers like Amate. But the jazz is also very present, in particular with the great festival organized each year in May at Pigeon Point, one of the most important jazz festivals in the world. Santana, Herbie Hancock, or George Benson have been among the performers. Luther François The local handicrafts are very interesting. Many local craftmen offer various products of their manufacture carved in coconuts or wood. If many stores sell imported products of other islands like Trinidad, some are specialized in the local handicrafts like The Bagshaws or The Caribelle Batik Factory close from Morne Fortune.

Stlucia has a mix of English, French, African and Caribbean cultural influences. http://www.destinationplanner.com/north_america/saint_lucia/culture_st_lucia.htm

The culture of Saint Lucia Travel to Saint Lucia with St Lucia has a mix of English, French, African and Caribbean cultural influences. For instance, if you walk into the Catholic cathedral in the capital, Castries, you'll find a building of French design, an interior richly painted in bright African-inspired colors, portraits of a black Madonna and child, and church services delivered in English. Derek Walcott, the renowned Caribbean poet and playwright and winner of the 1992 Nobel Prize for Literature, is a native of St Lucia. Walcott, who teaches overseas, still maintains his connections with the island and is spearheading a movement to renovate the buildings on Rat Island, a former quarantine station off Choc Beach. There are plans to turn the buildings into a retreat for writers and artists. Another Nobel laureate with island connections is former Princeton University professor Sir Arthur Lewis (1915-91), who was born in Castries but educated in England. He developed what became known as the 'Lewis Model,' which explores the transition developing countries experience as they move from an agrarian to an industrial economy. Lewis received the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1979. Foreign filmmakers have been captivated by St Lucia's scenic landscape, which makes a guest appearance in movies such as

For one week in October, they dress in 'Kweyol' fashion, and on one day they speak only in 'Kweyol'. ''The sounds of Kweyol permeate the entire society and has become part of the consciousness of even those who are not primarily Kweyol speakers. The language and culture are intertwined,'' observes St. Lucia's Folk Research Centre (FRC). The FRC in a report, titled 'Status of the Kweyol Language in St. Lucia', observes that ''not only is the Kweyol language becoming more powerful, but the Kweyol culture is gaining momentum and a wider acceptance.''

For several years the island was ruled by Britain, but its constitutional status changed on February 22, 1979, when the island became an independent nation. In May 1979 St. Lucia joined the Organization of American States -OAS- and in September of that year the island was admitted into the United Nations as the 142nd Member. Although the island's economy is mainly an agricultural one, tourism continues to play a major role and is the fastest growing industry.

Antigua Barbuda Resorts Travel Guide Antigua Barbuda History, Culture, Map Christopher Columbus landed on the islands in 1493, naming the larger one "Santa Maria de la Antigua." The English colonized the islands in 1632. Sir Christopher Codrington established the first large sugar estate in Antigua in 1674, and leased Barbuda to raise provisions for his plantations. Barbuda's only town is named after him. Codrington and others brought slaves from Africa's west coast to work the plantations. Antiguan slaves were emancipated in 1834 but remained economically dependent on the plantation owners. Economic opportunities for the new freedmen were limited by a lack of surplus farming land, no access to credit, and an economy built on agriculture rather than manufacturing. Poor labor conditions persisted until 1939, when a member of a royal commission urged the formation of a trade union movement. Horatio Nelson arrived in 1784 at the head of the Squadron of the Leeward Islands to develop the British naval facilities at English Harbour and to enforce stringent commercial shipping laws. The first of these two tasks resulted in construction of Nelson's Dockyard, one of Antigua's finest physical assets; the second resulted in a rather hostile attitude toward the young captain. Nelson spent almost all of his time in the cramped quarters of his ship, declaring the island to be a "vile place" and a "dreadful hole." Serving under Nelson at the time was the future King William IV, for whom the altogether more pleasant accommodation of Clarence House was built.
