Jalousie/Sugar Beach Break
B.E.A.C.H. -- Best Escape Anyone Can Have!
Indulge yourself on a beautiful, soft, white-sand beach, nestled between the dramatic volcanic peaks of the majestic Gros and Petit Pitons. Visited by celebrities and famous for its idyllic location, you will think you are in paradise!
Also referred to as Sugar Beach, this tropical beach getaway will allow you to spend a day relaxing under a swaying palm, swim in the inviting crystal-clear aqua blue waters of the Caribbean Sea and bask in the sun. With the Gros and Petit Piton as your awe-inspiring backdrop, sink your toes into the powdery, sugar-white sand, unwind with a complimentary, cool beverage and savor the flavors of the island with a delectable, chicken Creole lunch.
For snorkeling enthusiasts, an underwater world is waiting to be explored beneath the waters of the Petit Piton in the Natural Marine Reserve. See a variety of sea sponges and soft coral gardens as well as Sergeant Majors, Parrot Fish, Trumpet Fish, Needle Fish, Sea Urchins, Squid and more. You will be astounded by the vibrancy of the marine life here!
Your return journey includes a thrilling speedboat coastal tour along St. Lucia's scenic and rugged coastline. Take in stunning vistas and lush, secluded coves only visible on water. Get up close to the Bat Cave where you can see, smell and hear the screeching of Fisherman Bats. See the fish on the rock, the quaint fishing villages of Anse La Raye and Canaries and marvel at the Natural Bridge/Lady's Slipper (featured in the movie Pirates of the Caribbean) before cruising through picturesque Marigot Bay.
If you're dreaming of escaping to a tropical beach with epic, breathtaking views, dazzling, white sand and sparkling, clear water that also offers some of the best snorkeling in St. Lucia, Spencer Ambrose Tours can take you there! Your unforgettable day in paradise awaits.
