Follow your expert nature guide through the Castries Waterworks Forest Reserve, one of the island’s most pristine habitats. Along winding trails shaded by giant trees, you’ll listen to the melodies of tropical birds and spot flashes of color—emerald hummingbirds, graceful flycatchers, and if you’re lucky, the island’s shy national bird, the Saint Lucia Parrot.
