About this experience
Experience a part of St. Lucia that is not easily accessible and still undeveloped. Watching the sunrise come up over the horizon is a exhilarating way to start your day. Not many tours offer such an early start which allows you to fit more activities in later on the day or to spend the rest of the day relaxing knowing that you still got some adventure in.
