Pre-Christmas Chill Out in The Caribbean
What better way to banish 'bah-humbug' feelings brought about by this time of year than by taking off in search of sunnier skies and the laid-back living of the Caribbean.

The lavishly lush landscape of St Lucia, dotted with jasmine, wild orchids and scarlet flowers, has captured the hearts of travellers for generations and has cemented the island's status as the most picturesque in the Caribbean.
