I've just got back from St. Lucia.

The quality of the underwater environment is variable. Many say it is
not the best in the Caribbean - but I can't comment having mot been
anywhere else.

Unless you want to take your life into your own hands and hire a car,
you will be limited to where the resort takes you.

We were staying at Le Sport in the North of the Island. Two house
reefs (Left and Right!) both demonstrate the devestation that a good
strom can wreak on coral - the dive guides told us they are starting
to recover - slowly.

Lesleen M is a fantastic wreck/artificial reef dive with a nice swim
through if your buoyancy control is up to it. Nearby Anse Cochon reef
is also a nice dive.

Piton wall is a great wall dive and is part of the Soufriere Marine
Management Area, and is Anse Reef in the next bay North from the
Pitons (this is the Anse Chastanet housre reef).

Hope this is of some use to you Matt.
