Saint Lucia was
discovered by
Christopher Columbus in 1499
and colonised by
the British in
1605 and again
by
the French in
1667. The island
of
Saint Lucia gained
independence in
1979.
Saint Lucia
is a volcanic island 27
miles by 14 miles
with a mountainous
interior. The central
mountain range spans the
island
and the highest point is
Mount Gimie at 950m. The interior of the
island is covered
in lush rain forest;
with a flat area in
the north where most of the
hotels are located. |
