"Upcoming 'star' destination in the Caribbean. Extremely attractive, natural, lush beauty. New fame could lead to overdevelopment."
"St. Lucia's most noteworthy scenery, the Pitons, near village of Soufriere, yet this community is filled with rude individuals who prey on tourists for handouts. Dependence on all-inclusive resorts (a majority of the hotel rooms on the island) has limited creation of a thriving restaurant scene. It also limits authentic interaction with locals, creating us-and-them atmosphere."
"Kweyol culture festivals and successful annual Jazz Festival enable St. Lucia to offer both the old and the new."
"A gorgeous island that could easily fall to generic tourism and the encroachments of all-inclusivism."
"Preservation takes second place to tourism development. Government failed to extend moratorium on turtle fishing, which immediately decimated the resident population built up carefully over the last years."
