As given in its title of leading honeymoon destination, St. Lucia is a romantic island boasting beautiful weather, excellent resorts, and pristine beaches, much like the rest of its Caribbean counterparts. Perhaps what sets it apart from the rest, are its lush mountain peaks, particularly the famed Pitons, that make for the perfect backdrop to any romantic vacation.
