Anyone been? My lucky blighter of a sister is going with her other half in next few weeks.
Splash Island water park is a place I've heard is worth visiting. |  | | |  |

Tell her you’ve read that the tap water is a bit dodgy so she should avoid ice cubes in her drinks. [Post edited 19 Nov 2019 18:28]

Yes Dicky I got married there 30 years ago. Can't remember much about it. We were told at the time that can be quite dangerous if you get in the wrong places. We were advised to stick to the tourist spots. Went to Castries and was 'advised' to f*ck off back to the beach by a huge bloke as he spat at my feet as I got off the bus. After 15 mins in Castries I think he was just giving me some good advice.
Pitons are lovely, as are the beaches and the cocktails. ''Pussy Brains' were particularly entertaining. |  |

Melinda and I went two years ago in August (much cheaper than going in the winter, and I tend to want to escape Texas summers more than winters).
It is awesome! We stayed at an all-inclusive spa called Body Holiday near the north end of the island. It is the most mountainous of any island in the Caribbean - the ride from the airport to the spa was less than 40 miles but took nearly 2 hours.
I never heard of Splash Island. The must sees are the Pitons (which are a good hike, too), the mud baths, and the botanical gardens/waterfall. The drive up volcano was just meh. Friday nights, the town of Gros Islet has a great street party.
Lots of Brits where we stayed, hardly any Americans. Our Swans shirts got a lot of curious looks. [Post edited 19 Nov 2019 22:32]
