When you think of St. Lucia, you think gorgeous beaches, crystal clear waters and, of course, the iconic Pitons. The Gros Piton and Petit Piton (which means big spike and little spike in French) are two evergreen mountains which have attracted photographers from all over the world to snap some stunning panoramic shots.A great way to get an Insta-worthy photo of this world heritage site is from a boat with the glistening sea in the foreground. Avid hikers can also trek along one of the many guided trails to take a bird’s eye view from the very top of either mountain. For some of the best views of the Pitons, book your St. Lucia holiday at Sugar Beach, A Viceroy Resort, which is located right at the foot of the mountains.
Marigot Bay

Marigot Bay is as much a favourite among locals as tourists, thanks to its small beaches and entertainment venues. Home to some of St. Lucia’s lively bars and restaurants, Marigot Bay is a great place to visit whether it’s for a night out or afternoon wander. You’ll find a range of boats lined up by the dock, bobbing on the light blue waters of the Caribbean Sea which makes for a great backdrop for a selfie. Marigot Bay is also arguably the best spot to watch the sun go down and witness the transition of blue skies turning into shades of pink and coral. Definitely worth a gram.

This 44-acre island was once the hideout of infamous pirate James de Bois. Over time, the small island became a military staging point by the British army. Pigeon Island is now the site of St. Lucia’s popular Jazz Festival and a hotspot for inspiring Instagrammers. Although a man-made causeway was built in 1972, the island still feels like its own entity which makes for great ‘private-island’ style images. Climb up Signal Peak for a panoramic photo op of the island.
