First of all, ST Lucia is located in the Caribbean part of the Lesser Antilles, which are all the small islands.

Hooking on the right side passed Puerto Rico and further part of the Windward Islands, which are the bottom five islands that stretch to South America.

It is about 27 miles long and 14 miles wide.

The country is made up of 10 districts with the capital and largest city of about 70,000 people.

Castries, located in the northwest side of the country.

The next largest towns would be grossly lay and Vieux fort down south, which actually holds the largest airport, Eleanora International.

This airport is where most international flights come into, which is why the country is investing so much in this one town to attract the tourists to stay, instead of complaining about needing to get taxis to get all the way up to the hot spots like Castries or Sue Frey.

Castries has the second and on Lee other airport, Castries George F.

Charles Airport, which has a shorter runway that only handles regional turboprop and prop airplanes from other nearby islands.

The country also has many other means of transport.

The largest port being the port of Castries.

Cruises and yachts, usually DOC or as much of the cargo vessels docked at Port Coldest Sack at Buckeye Terminal, which holds massive crude oil storage tanks that cooperate with countries like the U.

From there, you have three main roads that go around the island, the East Coast road, the West Coast road and the grocery LEH Highway that goes all the way to the northern tip of the island.

This whole section here is only accessible by small local paths, many of which are not fully paved or even accessible by vehicle.

The country is planning on maybe building a highway in the future, but for now, the numbers.

Six shaped road network is the main means of road transport.

So there's more than two I knew career being folks.

Liberian man Myanmar In any case, today, most town names and places are named after a French words but have like an anglicized bastardized pronunciation reason being because instead of renaming everything after the French left, they just kind of re pronounced everything.

For what it's worth, though, ST Lucia is kind of known for being the love and romance island of the Caribbean.

It was voted the number one honeymoon destination by the World Travel Award nine times.

I mean, the resorts and beaches are insanely accommodating.

You will see the colors blue, black, yellow and white everywhere on telephone poles, on cars, on buildings.

Oh, and the Pirates of the Caribbean movies were partially filmed here as well, and you can actually see the real Pearl ship in Grosse Ile a Harbor.

They just kind of left it there after filming.

Yeah, well, we have the entire set of Port Royal.

Yeah, we'll get to that in the next episode.

And speaking of cool things to see in the country, here is a list of notable spots and sites you might want to check out in case if you ever decide to visit the aerial cable tram, Pigeon Island, Rizzo Rum Distillery, Diamond Water, Falling Gardens, Mommy Coup Gardens Tech Paul Peak, The horse racing track for view Aton of churches like these Castries Market.

They're so proud of these two sharp vertical volcanic plugs.

Here are some junkie drone footage shots I got and it's even on their flag, which we will discuss on flag Friday.

In any case, here's the landscape, makeup explained.

First of all, ST Lucia sits on the convergence of the Caribbean play in the North American plate.

This subduction is what essentially caused the Antillean, Ark.

Where all the smaller eastern Caribbean islands air found.

Essentially many of these islands were formed volcanically and ST Lucia being one of the most active.

The country is over 85% mountainous and about 77% forested, mostly on the inland parts, the tallest point being Mount Jimmy on the southwest side of the island.

These jagged mountains allow numerous natural harbors on the edges, which is one of the reasons why it was coveted so much between the British and French.

And it also allows small rivers and creeks to meander throughout the valleys, including the longest river, the Roseau, that flows into the Caribbean.

The country has no main inland bodies of water, and the closest thing to a lake would probably be the reservoir created by the John Compton Dam on the Rizzo River.

The country really only has two seasons the dry season from December to June and the wet season from June to November.

Hurricanes do occasionally may strike, but it is rare that they feel the full force of one.

Only two in the past 30 years have caused noticeable damage.

Finally, due to the pummeling winds of the Atlantic hitting the east side mixed with the warm moisture of the Caribbean to the west over the mountains, it kind of creates a miniature rain shadow effect, which causes the flatter valleys of the Southeast side to be slightly drier than the force that areas of the North.

The Southside actually is noticeably drier than the North.

I need my triple shot of espresso break from mug that you could get a job now dot com, so that means no one comes in for this segment.
