St.
Lucia Beaches
St. Lucia's golden, wide open
beaches are a sun seekers paradise.
The destructive nature of shark nets and the proximity of the
St. Lucia
beaches to the Turtle breeding grounds and the dolphin and
whale migrating
routes they are absent from these pristine coastal
waters. No recorded
shark attacks has taken place in over 50 years. This is mainly
because of the absence of shark feeding operations and open
water
suarage dumping. Even designated fish cleaning areas keeps the
fisherman
from creating hotspots close to the waters edge.
St. Lucia beaches is clean and
untouched by human development.
St. Lucia town is within walking distance from the
beaches but presently
the beach front is undeveloped from as far as Richards Bay in
the south to
Mazambique in the north. The
golden beaches are lined with the majestically vegetated sand dunes
on the western boarder. Weather is subtropical with summer
evening rainfall
and warm and sunny winter days with an average water temperature
above
21 Celsius all year round. |
