INSPIRATIONAL SAINT LUCIA
Simply Beautiful
A perfect jewel in the Caribbean Sea, Saint Lucia is one of the Windward Islands in the Lesser Antilles, that trail down in a curve from the larger West Indian islands like a pearl necklace. Saint Lucia is arguably also one of the most beautiful. Lush with tropical rainforest and rimmed with powder sand beaches, this small island–measuring 27 miles long by 14 miles wide–is renowned for its breathtaking scenery and its Pitons; two mountain peaks listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Its distinct setting is also home to a rich heritage of Carib, African, French and English cultures, and a local cuisine that blends West Indian, Creole and French tastes.
BodyHoliday is here. Set on the northwest tip of the island on a crescent of Cariblue Beach, surrounded by 42 acres of tropical gardens, it is minutes from exploring Saint Lucia’s many natural wonders and its unique cultural flair.
Whilst you are here with us, we’d love to share the beauty of our inspirational island nation with you. We can recommend a number of tours and excursions. And for the more adventurous we offer “Walk on the Wild Side” which is our soft adventure programme. WOTWS opens up the possibility to engage in physically challenging activities and to explore the island as well.

Mount Gimie Hike
Mount Gimie is the tallest mountain in the West Indies. The mountain’s peak reaches 950 m (3117 ft). It is of volcanic origin and is covered by lush tropical rainforest.
The initial part of the trail is a descent towards the base of Mount Gimie. The ascent is long but not too severe. The summit is small and grassy. After a rigorous hike up, at the summit, you will revel in the magnificent, breath-taking views – Pigeon Island to the north, Vieux Fort to the south and the Pitons west. The view from the summit on a clear day will have you checking off that experience from your bucket-list.
Mount Gimie Hike is one of our most extreme adventures at BodyHoliday!

This scramble and abseiling session has been called thrilling, inspiring, wild, exhilarating and awesome! Our guides will lead you on an abseil down into a 120 foot gorge onto the sand bank of a shallow river. The further you go down the gorge, the closer you get to the wild flora and fauna of the island. If you have second thoughts about doing the abseil, you can hike to the landing area. This 2-hour trek is adventurous and requires a high level of fitness.
