What to do and see in St. Lucia, St. Lucia: The Best Museums

September 14, 2021 Franklyn Hardiman

When was the last time you went out for a casual drive and ended up inside a volcano? A surreal scenario comes to life at La Soufrière, one of the most popular attractions in St. Lucia. Pack your skin with the medicinal mud of Sulfur Springs for a DIY spa treatment. Continue your eruptive adventures with a guided hike of the two volcanic plugs known as the Pitons then ascend Morne Fortune to take in the sweeping views. For an intimate beach experience, hit the private black sands of Anse Mamin.

Choiseul Art Gallery

Choiseul Art Gallery has a range of oil paintings of the St. Lucian landscape, prints and greetings cards as well as a variety of locally made crafts and souveniers.

Reviewed By amdgriggs - Sheffield, United Kingdom

We came here after mistakenly thinking that the best place to go was the Choiseul Art and Craft Centre (big mistake). The Art Gallery is privately owned by Hattie Barnard and her husband and much of the work exhibited there is by Hattie herself - unique and hand made pieces including bowls, mats, jewellery, paintings, made from found materials, calabash shells/pods, wood, recycled paper and many more including at least two books Hattie has written - and high-quality pieces they are too. So too are the pieces they exhibit that are made from local people on the island - again made from wood, palm leaves, and much more. Really sadly we were heading home later that day, travelling handluggage only, so there was little chance of us taking any with us. A shame. The pieces are not cheap, but as Hattie told us herself, every single piece is unique and that's what you pay for. She gave us a personalised and really detailed tour round the gallery and for those with the interest and the time this is a brilliant and unusual place to visit.

We came here on one of our last day’s in Soufriere and wish we had stopped sooner. Great French press coffee, tasty omelettes and toast and we enjoyed talking with the owner and locals and looking at the art.
