Castries, St Lucia's capital, is a modern resort that is very popular in peak-season. A great place for shopping, Castries is home to vibrant open-air vegetable markets, craft fairs and shopping centres. Also a popular attraction is the pretty port district where hundreds of cruise ships dock each year to unload tourists for a day of duty-free shopping at the city's malls. The area is lined with charming waterfront cafs and a varied choice of bars and restaurants.
