Saint Lucia is a fabulous eastern Caribbean island that beckons the winter-weary. It is a part of the Lesser Antilles; for the geographically-challenged this means northwest of Barbados and south of Martinique.
The island is roughly 238 square miles and volcanic in origin; indeed, it is one of the most mountainous of the Caribbean islands. St. Lucia is known for its twin landmarks: two mountains called the Pitons, and also claims a drive-in volcano! The climate is tropical (who'd a thought?) so daytime temperatures tend to be around 84 degrees while nights are typically a pleasant 64 degrees.
You may know someone who resides in St. Lucia, or you may decide you want to move and leave the chaos of life in the States far behind; in either case you will want to research international shipping to St. Lucia.
Obviously, the easiest way to move to the island of your dreams is to have someone else do it for you! International shipping requires a fair amount of expertise and unless you are one who enjoys learning the hard way, gathering information can be time-consuming and frustrating...for example, proper packing is essential for a long-distance move. It can come as a very unpleasant surprise to find out you under-padded your irreplaceable, life-size porcelain monkey. Expert help allows you to avoid delays and mistakes.
Most people have a pretty good idea of prohibited items (going through customs) such as guns, drugs, etc., but there is a lot more to learn; for example, on the leave-at-home list for St. Lucia is: counterfit currency or stamps, food unfit for humans, shaving brushes made in Japan (dating back to an anthrax scare in the early 1900's) and condoms made by Monkok Latix of South Korea. Can't really guess that kind of stuff! Using a professional shipping company will be a blessing due to invaluable knowledge that will save you time and headaches.
St. Lucia is an ideal destination for most; unlimited recreational opportunities even for those who are horrified at the thought of being in public wearing a swimsuit! There are catamaran cruises, golf, tennis, hiking, bird watching, (the St. Lucia parrot, or Jacquot, is found only on the island) horseback riding, ATV tours and much more. The island's people are known to be warm and friendly as well.
