Saint Lucia, a member of the Commonwealth, is an island in the West Indies bathed by the Caribbean Sea, and whose capital is Castries. It is bordered by Saint Vincent and the Grenadines to the south, Barbados to the southeast, and Martinique to the north. Its area is 620 km2, and the island has just under 200,000 inhabitants.

Saint Lucia, nicknamed “the Helen of the West”, is a volcanic island whose main resource is tourism. The island notably has very beautiful luxury hotels in its northern part, very popular with American tourists. But it is a destination that also attracts Europeans who prefer the wilder southern part. With its magnificent beaches bordered by the Caribbean Sea, Saint Lucia is the ideal place to spend a dream vacation!

But this island has another advantage: it allows you to acquire a second nationality at a lower cost, by making an economic investment on the island.
