You can read about the island of Saint Lucia here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Lucia
Quotation:
"Tourism in St Lucia
Second only to bananas, tourism is vital to St Lucia's economy and it is expected that economic importance of tourism will continue to increase as the market for bananas becomes more competitive. Tourism tends to be more substantial during the dry season (January - April). St Lucia tends to be popular due to its tropical weather and scenery and for its large number of beaches and resorts.
Other tourist attractions include the world's only drive-in volcano, the Botanical Gardens, rainforests and Pigeon Island National Park, which is home to Fort Rodney, and old British military base."
Interesting info from German Wikipedia on the term of "Santa Lucia": http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Lucia
"Santa Lucia (bzw. Santa Lúcia oder Santa LucÃ*a) ist der Name von mehr als 600 Orten, Kirchen und anderen Objekten weltweit.", etc. Means, "Santa Lucia is the name for more than 600 places, churches, and other things".
"Santa Lucia" is also a well-known traditional Neapolitan song. More at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Lucia
