WHAT YOU VISIT

REFRESHMENTS
A thirst-quenching drink will be served after your dip in the mud bath at Mud Baths.

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
Your scenic drive takes you through banana and coconut plantations, two traditional fishing villages and skirts the fringes of the rainforest. Marvel at the spectacular twin peaks of the Pitons as you descend into the town of Soufriere.
