Whether you want outstanding natural beauty, historic sites, coasts, bays and beaches, buzzing towns or tranquil spots, St. Lucia has it in abundance. With a laid-back atmosphere and peoples, a wonder of gastronomical delights and a whole plethora of things to do!
The region of Gros Islet sits on the northern tip of the island and as a result, offers amazing landscapes and views, heaps of beaches and speciality seafood! Your stay sees you in the Trouya residential area, which offers privacy and quick access to the beach!
Trouya Beach is one of the quieter spots across the coast, where you and fellow travellers can spend a day of fun in the sun, away from the built-up crowds on many other beaches. Trouya Beach showcases a small cove, hidden amongst a rich forest, which provides much-needed shade for beachgoers. The sea is as crystalline and divine as any other spot you would visit along the shores, inviting you to swim in its warm depths or float on its surface!
St. Lucia's culture has been fused with traditions and nations across the world, so you can expect a special array of dishes with influences from across the globe. Gros Islet used to be a fishing village thus you can expect years of skill and expertise in seafood passed down from generation to generation to offer you some of the finest delicacies you will ever encounter. Make sure you try Langouste, a small lobster prepared with herbs and spices, Lambi which is a seafood speciality and salt fish! As for drinks, bars and cafes sit everywhere, from towns to beaches, so you can grab refreshments as you stroll along or relax on the white sand beaches!
Every Friday night, Gros Islet springs to life with a street party, Jump Up. Here you can feast on barbecued and jerk produce, meat and fish or sip a mouth-wateringly delicious cocktail! With giant speakers set out on the main road, you can party and boogie all night long alongside fellow travellers and locals alike!
