When it comes to the Caribbean, you have a lot of choices but the island of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Destinations-In-St-Lucia.d168.Hotel-Destinations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">St. Lucia<\/a> is something special. Yes, there are beaches and palm trees and crystalline ocean waves but St. Lucia is nicknamed &#8220;Helen of the West Indies&#8221; for good reason. This island is out-of-this-world beautiful, with a striking landscape of much more than beaches. Whether you&#8217;re a fan of romantic getaways, sun and sand or adventure travel, here are five compelling reasons to visit St. Lucia:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/2016\/02\/spring-break-makeovers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ALSO:<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/2016\/02\/spring-break-makeovers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a01 compelling reason to visit these 5 spring break destinations: no spring breakers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[aesop_gallery id=&#8221;42876&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 165px;\">1. La Soufiere Drive-In Volcano and\u00a0Sulfur\u00a0Springs<\/h3>\n<p>Steam and the stench of rotten eggs will greet you as you drive through the crater of &#8220;the world&#8217;s only drive-in volcano.&#8221; \u00a0A guided walking tour takes you right up to the volcano&#8217;s \u00a0bubbling mud and sulfur, with just a small fence to separate you from the activity. Although<a href=\"http:\/\/soufrierefoundation.org\/discover\/attractions\/sulphur_springs_park\/\">La Soufriere<\/a> is dormant. it doesn&#8217;t look like it and it forms the hottest and most active geothermal area in the Eastern Caribbean. You can cool off in the sulfur springs and small pools just outside the volcano. The sulfur and volcanic mud is reputed to have healing effects, soothing mosquito bites, arthritis and eczema.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 165px;\">2. The Twin Peaks of The Pitons<\/h3>\n<p>The two volcanic plugs that soar up from the sea are the dramatic symbol of St. Lucia and are worth the trip alone. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rainforestadventure.com\/st-lucia\/natural-attractions\/the-pitons\/\">The Pitons<\/a>\u00a0are\u00a0named Gros Piton for the taller 26919 ft. peak and Petit Piton for the smaller,2461 ft. one. They\u00a0loom all over the island but the best views can be grabbed in the villages of Soufriere and Choiseul. Active travelers can hike the Pitons or swim up to the peaks.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 165px;\">3. Open Wall Hotel Suites<\/h3>\n<p>The beauty of St. Lucia completely surrounds you in hotels specially designed to incorporate the island&#8217;s natural assets. Forget about gazing out a window, you can reach out and touch the vistas at these hotels, which boast only three walls. Visitors can indulge in the ultimate romantic getaway while absorbing St. Lucia&#8217;s legendary beauty. The suites at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ansechastanet.com\/\">Anse Chastanet<\/a>\u00a0showcase natural beauty with up close views and trees growing in the middle of a few while nearby <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jademountain.com\/\">Jade Mountain<\/a>\u00a0boasts infinity pools in each &#8220;sanctuary&#8221; as well as vistas of the Pitons. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ladera.com\/\">Ladera\u00a0<\/a>perches on a volcanic cliff surrounded by a cocoa plantation and mountain panoramas.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 165px;\">4. Heritage Chocolate Tours<\/h3>\n<p>With a cacao growing tradition that dates back 40 years, St. Lucia is a chocolate lovers dream. Every visitor can grab a taste of this with a traditional cup of morning cocoa tea at any hotel but for full chocolate immersion, a chocolate tour is highly recommended. \u00a0Explore the chocolate production process, from cocoa groves to raw cocoa sticks at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fonddouxestate.com\/activities\/land-tours.htm\">Fond Doux \u00a0Plantation &amp; Resort.<\/a>\u00a0You can craft your own chocolate bar at Hotel Chocolat&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotelchocolat.com\/uk\/boucan\/the-experiences\/tours\">Tree to Bar Experience<\/a>\u00a0and chocoholics can tour the small chocolate lab and learn about chocolate making techniques for the resort&#8217;s signature chocolate bars at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jademountain.com\/cuisine\/chocolate.html\">Jade Mountain.<\/a>\u00a0 Top it all off with a chocolate and wine pairing at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tikaye.com\/dine\/wine\/wine-tastings\/\">Ti Kaye Village Resort.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 165px;\">5. Pigeon Island Park and Beaches<\/h3>\n<p>Revel in ocean views, a historic fort and beaches all in one place;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.slunatrust.org\/sites\/pigeon-island-national-landmark\/\"> Pigeon Island National Park.<\/a>\u00a0This 44-acre islet is an important St. Lucian historical site, with the 18th century Fort Rodney,\u00a0barracks,\u00a0cannons and a lookout point. \u00a0On the south side of Pigeon Island, two small beaches, sheltered by palm trees offer the perfect spot for lounging. Don&#8217;t miss Jambe De Bois Restaurant, located on the beach, it serves up hearty portions of local cuisine.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a
