Morning on the west coast of Saint Lucia begins with salt air and a road that climbs and falls like an old story—your driver points first to two jagged peaks rising from the sea: the Pitons, immediate and uncompromising. From the window you can feel the island’s geology press close; volcanic ridges give way to green gullies and a coastline that has been fished and farmed for centuries.
