A bit about Vieux Fort

Named for a fort that used to watch over Saint Vincent to the south of Saint Lucia, the quarter of Viex Fort, and the city that shares its name, lies in the southernmost part of the island. Industrial prowess has shaped modern day Viex Fort, where a handful of high-end hotels lie between bustling roadways and dramatic coastlines. Local attractions include the Maria Islands Nature Reserve, a small island home to iguanas and nesting sites for leatherback turtles. Viex Fort is excellent for holidaymakers looking for something special outside the usual offerings of Saint Lucia.
