St. Lucia's capital and largest city is Castries. The official language is English, but French patois is also widely spoken.

When we first visited the island on 11/30/2016, it was a rainy day. We made arrangements for a private tour from the port at Castries along the west coast down to Soufiere and then back.

On our second visit on 2/17/2025, we took a group tour Castries along the west coast down to Soufiere stopping at Marigot Bay, Maranatha Gardens, and the sulphur springs in the Soufiere caldera.
