Soufriere sits in the shadow of the Pitons — St. Lucia's two volcanic spires that rise straight from the sea and are arguably the most dramatic landscape in the Caribbean. The town is small and a little rough around the edges, but that rawness is part of its appeal. Diamond Falls and the mineral baths nearby are worth the short trip up the hill, and the views back toward the ship anchored below the Pitons are genuinely remarkable.
