Soufriere is the former capital of Saint Lucia and is known as the island’s main hub. A visit to Mount Soufriere Sulphur Springs Park, an active volcano is one of the top things to do in Soufriere. Visitors can drive right into the crater to see the majestic volcano and its caldera up close. Indulge in a hot mud bath at the Sulfur springs pool known for its healing properties. Head to Diamond Falls Botanical garden, an oasis of lush greenery housed in Soufriere estate, one of the best-preserved estates on St Lucia. The Botanical Garden boasts native flora, fauna, and a stunning waterfall. The 15-meter high waterfall is known to create a rainbow of colors due to the presence of minerals in the water. Hike up to the Piton Mountains, a UNESCO world heritage site located outside of Soufriere known for its raw beauty and splendid views atop the mountain.
