Your observations and descriptions are excellent, accurate, and I would tell anybody who sees your video that everything you say is valuable advice. If you decide to leave retire from medicine someday like I might, we could become St. Lucia guides. Excellent advice on your video!

It depends on how long you want to stay there and the places you want to visit. Overall, in my opinion it is not worth driving. It’s not just the side of the road you’re driving but the size of the road and the dangers involved

While your video is excellent in many respects, for the value of viewers, I respectfully correct you on some points. I am a St. Lucian who lives in Canada but who owns a property at the southern end of Reduit Beach. In fact, as I write I am sitting two minutes walk from the sand and water. First of all, Result Beach is certainly NOT congested, ever! Perhaps you visited briefly probably near Spinnakers Restaurant on a day of a cruise ship call. Pigeon Point does not touch the Atlantic. It is entirely on the Caribbean side as it is on our West coast. Cas en Bas Beach is a beautiful and safe sheltered beach on our North-east coast facing the Atlantic and one of the very few with safe bathing on the Atlantic side. There is no "r" in Castries, sorry. I hope that you accept my constructive criticism on your excellent work which is only designed to enhance it for the value of other viewers. Roger

Married in st Lucia way back in 93, stayed in a beachfront hotel on the Castries side of island, stayed mainly on the resort,as was a fantastic place, private beach etc, but took boat trip to soufriere, was a Sunday,as I remember the local kids all dressed in thier Best clothes, for church apparently, and very Smart they were too! Visited the pitons and went to the volcano, visited Rodney bay , dined out a couple of time's all in all loved the place and had a fantastic stay, but really didn't have to do much other than lounge on the beautiful beach soaking up the July sunshine , and take advantage of activities such as jet skis,scuba diving,water ski volleyball,tennis courts, jacuzzi,pool, drink and eat Rather excessively lol it was all inclusive ( even down to cigarettes!! Something I'd never experienced before or since 😁) I also remember the roads weren't the best,some big old holes on them hills lol
