Dine, Dance and Delight: St. Lucia’s Restaurants and Night Life

After soaking in the sun on St. Lucia’s beautiful beaches, exploring the island’s exotic gardens and Caribbean wildlife, it’s time to absorb some more of the island’s culture and feel what it is like to be a true native. Indulge in authentic island food and groove to some of the hottest island beats while on your St. Lucia vacation. Take time to enjoy St. Lucia’s nightlife and all it has to offer.

 

 

 Dozens of restaurants, bars and grills offer mouth watering foods with a side of terrific, danceable tunes.

 

St. Lucia Adds the Spice of Life

Influenced by French, British and African flavors, the island’s cuisine includes fresh fish, vegetables and fruits. These native foods are usually dressed with spices that are common to the area such as cinnamon, nutmeg, thyme and clove. Plenty of onions, peppers and garlic are also used for seasoning. Take part in Dennery Fish Saturday when the east coast of the island eats delicious fish prepared by villagers and groove to the dancehall and R&B music on hand.

 

Another seafood hot spot is in the west coast village of Anse-la-Raye. Here visitors dine on fresh St. Lucia fish and dance to the loud, lively beats of Caribbean music.

 

Indian influences, such as curry seasoning, are no stranger to many popular Creole dishes found in many of St. Lucia’s restaurants. The seasoning adds an extra kick to any goat, chicken or lamb dish. Curry is also used in roti, a flatbread stuffed with curried vegetables and meat. This is a common and delicious delight of the island. Try some of the roti specialties at C&J’s eatery in St.Lucia. Or just wait until the last Saturday of the month and celebrate at Canaries Creole Pot. Take pleasure in all the Creole favorites in a large party atmosphere.

 

 

 

Celebrate St. Lucian Style

The Gros Islet is a terrific spot to enjoy night life while on your St. Lucia vacation. Every Friday night patrons can partake in a fun and exciting street party. Caribbean music is played by the island’s DJs and local musicians. The infectious rhythms and bass lines make it easy to dance the night away. Party goers can celebrate all night long without ever worrying about going hungry. A variety of eateries serve barbeque and local food favorites including chicken, pork and seafood.

 Quench Your Thirst

Whether dancing all night long at a club and grabbing food on the go, taking pleasure at a sit down dinner or simply relaxing in your St. Lucia villa, be sure to enjoy your meal with a cold glass of fresh coconut water. Or forget the glass and enjoy the fruit’s juices straight from the husk! Such a refreshing beverage can be had at any local restaurant.

 

Be Brave! Try a Favorite St. Lucia Delicacy

How about indulging in something new and different? St. Lucia is known for its green fig dishes. This exciting delicacy can be tasted at the twenty year establishment called The Lime.

 

 

The Lime, which offers nightly music and dancing, can be found in the Rodney Bay Area of St. Lucia. Walk down the strip and take in the nightlife at Delirius, an open air deli style St. Lucia restaurant or enjoy a drink at the exciting street bar called Mango’s Bar. For those looking to party all night long, the Pulse Night Club is something to look into.

 

 

Be fearless once again and try breadfruit, a large fruit commonly fried or boiled and eaten by locals. How about the love apple? This is a sweet fruit worth biting into.

 

Enjoy St. Lucia Culture

There is something for everyone in St. Lucia, but to truly experience island life and get a glimpse of St. Lucia culture it is worth partaking in the island’s night life. Try a native food, learn a new dance or stay up all night listening to the Caribbean beats. Embrace the culture and have a great time.
