Festivals and events in St Lucia in September

If you are an underwater enthusiast, September is one of the best months to visit St Lucia in order to experience the St Lucia Dive & Adventure Festival. Throughout the week, dive shops, resorts and operators will host diving events to highlight the beauty of St Lucia’s marine environment and how ongoing efforts are helping to protect it. If you’re staying at the Anse Chastanet Resort, there are fantastic all-inclusive offers from different outlets. Experience the unique thrill of snorkelling in a magnificent underwater world right next to Gros Piton, before returning to the luxuries of the Anse Chastanet Estate.

Further fun can be found at the inaugural St Lucia Wellness Music Festival. This festival is bringing together wellness and music to create a unique experience where you can recharge your batteries while enjoying Caribbean musical talent.

Top places to visit in St Lucia in September

With festivals and events taking place all over St Lucia in September and prices relatively low on accommodation, you can experience the fantastic diversity of St Lucia without breaking the bank. If you’re staying further north, such as in Sandals Grande Resort, we recommend heading to Pigeon Island beach. The beaches near Rodney Bay can get busy, but Pigeon Island beach is a great compromise if you want an archetypal Caribbean beach without the crowds. Best of all is the friendly St Lucian’s selling hollowed-out pineapples filled with ice and rum punch.

Many St Lucian restaurants celebrate their creole heritage with menus consisting of Caribbean and St Lucian delicacies; for example, at the rustic Pink Plantation House in Castries, you can try some of the best Lambi, Bouyon and Salt Fish in St Lucia, while taking in magnificent views of Castries Harbour and Martinique. With recipes rooted both in the heritage of the island and internationally, and made with the freshest ingredients, there is a good chance that you will have the culinary experience of a lifetime. You can also experience St Lucia’s culinary expertise at source, with plenty of tours available for plantations, distilleries and vineyards.

What’s the weather like in St Lucia in September?

In September, St Lucia has an average temperature of 27.5°C, with highs of 31°C and lows of 24°C. It can be wet and cloudy so make sure you prepare for some showers and thunderstorms, although showers are usually brief. August is during the Caribbean hurricane season, so we suggest that you check weather warnings before you travel.

What to pack for a holiday in St Lucia in September

  • Pack light clothing, swimwear and shoes suited to a summer holiday.
  • Comfy, rubbed-soled shoes for excursions and light hikes or hiking boots for longer treks.
  • Sun cream is an integral part of a Caribbean packing list. Ensure that your sun cream is listed as reef-friendly – many commercially sold sun creams contain chemicals like oxybenzone which have been linked to coral bleaching.
  • Sunglasses and a hat.
  • A jumper or cardigan for the cooler evenings.
  • Bring a light raincoat or small umbrella for downpours
  • A smart outfit for the evening.
  • Mosquito repellent.
  • Travel plug adapter.
  • Prescription medicines.
  • Tote bag for shopping and to use as a beach bag.
  • Snorkelling gear if you wish to snorkel from the beach.
  • Camouflage is illegal in St Lucia, so don’t pack your khaki cargo shorts.
