Nestled on a hillside just outside Soufrière, this unique attraction is a delightful mix of education, adventure, and a touch of adrenaline. You’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for island life—and maybe with your hair windswept from flying through the canopy.
The park is set on a working 18th-century plantation, and as you stroll through the grounds, it feels like stepping into a time machine (minus the confusing buttons). You’ll see replicas of traditional Creole homes, a functioning sugarcane mill, and demonstrations of how cassava was once processed—yep, before it became trendy in gluten-free baking circles. It’s a hands-on look at St. Lucia’s colonial past, with local guides bringing the stories to life with humor, heart, and just the right amount of dramatic flair.
But let’s talk about the real thrill here: ziplining. Strap on a harness and soar through a series of lines that zigzag across the plantation, offering jaw-dropping views of the Petit Piton, the Caribbean Sea, and the forest below. Whether you’re a first-timer or a zipline veteran, it’s equal parts exhilarating and beautiful. And no, screaming like a slightly terrified parrot is not only allowed—it’s practically encouraged.
If you prefer your feet on the ground (totally respectable), the estate also offers guided horseback rides, cocoa and coconut demos, and local Creole cooking classes. And let’s not forget the views: the plantation sits on a hillside, which means every glance comes with a backdrop of Pitons, palms, and blue, blue sea. Honestly, it’s the kind of place where even the goats look like they’re on vacation.
The on-site restaurant serves up tasty local fare with fresh island ingredients, and there’s a shop with handmade crafts and cocoa products you’ll definitely want to stash in your suitcase (if they make it that far—snacking is inevitable).
Hot Tip: Wear comfortable shoes, bring bug spray, and be ready to laugh—a lot. The guides are natural performers, and their stories add a big dose of charm to the whole experience. If you’re ziplining, don’t forget to secure your phone or camera unless you want it to fly off into the jungle. (Nature doesn’t have a lost and found.)
