Saint Lucia Districts

Saint Lucia is a volcanic island in the Windward Islands, between Martinique to the north and Saint Vincent to the south, and its first-level map has ten districts: strips of the island that run from the mountainous spine down to the coast, most of them named in French for a town or a bay.

What you are looking at

One island about forty kilometres long, cut into ten districts. The capital Castries sits on the north-west coast and its district is the one most people know first. The Pitons, the twin volcanic spires on the south-west coast, are in Soufrière, and the international airport and the island's southern tip are in Vieux Fort.

The groups are not an official classification. They are the northern districts around Castries, the south-western districts down the Caribbean coast, and the south-eastern districts from Dennery round to Vieux Fort, a way to learn the map a piece at a time.

How to place one

Start at the ends. Gros Islet is the northern tip and Vieux Fort the southern one, so they anchor the island before anything else.
Then the capital. Castries is the large district on the north-west coast, with Anse la Raye beside it to the south.
Work down each coast. The Caribbean side runs Canaries, Soufrière, Choiseul and Laborie, and the Atlantic side runs Dennery and Micoud.
