Pigeon Island National Landmark

Linked by causeway to the mainland near Rodney Bay, this 44-acre islet combines history and scenery beautifully. There are a pair of sweet strands—Whistle Beach and Soldiers Bay—plus walking trails and restored British colonial military installations including Fort Rodney, built in the 18th century to keep an eye on French naval movements. These days, the only peeping being done up here is visitors gazing out at sweeping views over St. Lucia´s northwest coast. Incidentally, Pigeon Island is also the home of the St. Lucia Jazz and Arts Festival, held annually in late April/early May.
