The Pitons | St. Lucia

The coastline of St. Lucia is beautiful.  It is lush, rocky for portions of it – and little fishing villages dot the western coast along with beaches.  The most majestic and striking part of the island’s geography is the vista you see here.  The Pitons (the Gros Piton and the Petite Piton) jut out into the sky just above the city of Soufriere, and just happen to be catching some gorgeous light in this shot – which was taken on our way home from an adventure around the island. The village gives the scene some scale – these things are just incredible.  Later this week I’ll feature a shot taken during lunch at a restaurant perched on one of the hills in the foreground that sits between the two pitons.
